Library of Things Maintenance & Move to a New Checkout System
Posted on August 13, 2025 at 6:00 am
Updated: October 31, 2025
The Library of Things is under construction. We are hard at work moving all our things to the new system as well as inspecting and providing any necessary service to the items in the collection. Watch this space for updates as we get closer to the launch date.
Items that check out from our regular catalog, just like a book does, will be available for checkout during this period. The lists below share things that check out just like a book and those that will be unavailable.
We are confident that the new system will provide an improved Library of Things experience for everyone.
We apologize for the inconvenience during this transition.
