Library of Things Expo
November 9, 11:00 am - 3:00 pm
FreeWe’re more than just books! Come see our collection of Things for all ages and interests. These are fun and useful items you can check out with your library card and take home to enjoy. This collection is great for those who need or want to try something without having to buy or store it.
Participants who visit and try various items can enter into a drawing for a Nintendo Switch Lite.
Just a few examples of ways you can use this collection:
Want to convert VHS home movies to DVD?
Maybe you’d like your child to play AND learn with a discovery kit?
Borrow our projector and screen for a movie night.
Ever wanted to try playing guitar or ukulele?
Are you planning a fun outing you’d like to record with an action camera?
Look at the stars with our tabletop telescope!
Try an electronic magnifier or other assistive technology, before deciding whether to purchase one.
Borrow some framed art, AND a laser level to hang it with.
All this and much more!
