The Library of Things is a collection of non-traditional items that supports creativity, lifelong learning, and social connection. Along with offering fun and inspiration, the Library of Things is a great way to “try before you buy.” Save your money (and the space in your closets) while still exploring hobbies and learning new things with this collection. Most items can be placed on hold and renewed if they do not have a waitlist.
