Library of Things

The Library of Things (LOT) is a collection of non-traditional materials — all available to check out for free with a library card. The collection offers opportunities for learning, creating, and finding inspiration. We plan to expand the library periodically. Do you have ideas for other useful items that can be added to the collection? Get in touch!

How It Works

  • Ask for the item at the Circulation Desk.

  • During checkout, review and sign our Lending Guidelines and Agreement for more valuable items: the bikes, sewing machine, the YOTO player, spotting scope, and the telescope.

  • The checkout period for many items is one week; two weeks for most children’s items. Renewals may be allowed if no one is waiting for the item.

  • Return the item to the Circulation Desk, not the book drop.
