There’s A Library In London Where, Instead Of Books, You Can Borrow Tools, Gadgets, And Various Household Items
secretldn.com
Scattered across London are these handy little libraries where, instead of borrowing things to read, you can borrow random things you need.

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.

    Last year I checked out books, switch games, a DVD drive, cake pans, puppets, a reciprocating saw, and while this is more like reserving for use, a laser cutter. Can’t believe there’s people that actually want to shut down libraries.
