Does this include any “library of things?” Because at my library I can check tools, thermal image cameras, tables, board games and all sorts of other things.
Not poster but northeast US in the more populated areas seem to have better stocked libraries. Mine has music, movies, board games, and a whole bunch of random equipment for stuff like research or cooking or building. Microscopes and knitting sets and pasta makers, construction equipment etc.
This library is in Indiana and still has one. My local one, also in Indiana, has one too. They both have maker spaces as well. The one here has free large format printing, 3D printing, sewing machines… some other things too that escape me now.
I’ve been to libraries where you can borrow music CDs, movie DvDs, and even games such as Nintendo Switch cartridges. My local library does DvDs but not the other stuff.

Where are you where you have those options? Id love to be able to checkout tools at the library.

This is pretty common in most blue states.
Illinois, in a suburb northwest of Chicago.
They have so much to borrow totally free. So many people think of libraries as just books, but they often are so much more.

I don’t know whether she takes advantage of them, but that library definitely has a LoT.
