[Video] Some #NJ libraries now offer a ‘#LibraryOfThings’

February 2024

Excerpt: "[W]e're used to checking out a trove of books when we head to the library.

"But visit a local branch and you'll find you can take out so much more.

"Libraries of things are the new trend where card holders can check out a range of goods from small appliances to a power washer.

"A little something for everyone.

Ted Goldberg has the story.

We have a power washer.

Who would have thought you could borrow a power washer from a public library?

"But you probably knew that there were other stuff might surprise you.

"We have everything from an OG Sega Genesis video game to one of our very popular items, electric knife sharpener.

"Their library of things has all sorts of inventory that might come in handy, like a stud finder or a cornhole set."
