The Ipswich Public Library is pleased to announce the launch of our new Library of Things collection! A “Library of Things” is a collection of non-traditional items that provides library cardholders access to a variety of items, many of which might be used infrequently. Beyond being a fun collection of interesting items, the Library of Things movement reinforces a shared community vision of reducing consumption and the potential for wasted resources.
The Library’s new collection includes over forty kits that library users can check out and take home. Some highlights include:
- A sewing machine with introductory books
- Night vision goggles
- Outdoor games such as bocce and corn hole
- Household tool kits
- Electronic equipment such as a mini projector, cassette to mp3 converter, and Roku stick (pre-loaded with content)
- Too many more Things to mention here!
For additional information and a complete list of items, please visit www.ipswichlibrary.org/library-of-things/ or call 978-356-6648 x3015.
