April Updates

New in our Library of Things: Enjoy your downtime!

We've recently added a gardening kit, created by our campus partners, that includes work gloves, trowels, a few packets of seeds to plant, and small plastic pots you can keep, plus info on finding free compost for planting.

External CD and DVD players with USB-C connections are also now available to check out for up to seven days. Pick one up, choose a selection of music and movies from our collection, and enjoy!

If you have ideas for our Library of Things, send us a suggestion!
