Library of Things

The Library of Things is a collection of useful objects that members aged 18+ can borrow.

The collection supports sustainability, encourages resource sharing and gives the community an opportunity to try and use items they might not be able to buy themselves.

Sports equipment is already available for short term loan, but soon you will be able to borrow a range of items such as:

  • Wellbeing kits (containing blood pressure monitor, pulse meter and digital thermometers)
  • Thermal cameras for heat loss detection
  • Home energy kits
  • Envoy audio players
  • Digital slide/negative converters and more

All items (except sports equipment) will have a loan period of two weeks.

You will need to be 18 years or older, have a full library membership and go through a short induction process before borrowing your first item.  

We hope to grow the collection over time and will be seeking community input on what items would be useful to members.

See library staff for more information.
