The Library of Things offers Londoners the chance to get their hands on the random tools, gadgets, and household items they need, in a far more sustainable way than buying them brand new. From camping gear and carpet cleaners to party supplies and pressure washers; the Library of Things is packed full with handy items to borrow at affordable prices. And with 19 libraries now scattered across the city; it’s never been more convenient to borrow rather than buy.
I lived in Oakland for a while and they had an awesome tool library. Lawnmowers and hedge trimmers, jackhammers, impact drills and saws, dolleys for when you move, automotive tools. It was awesome.
