We have more than books to check out with your library card.
What is a Library of Things?
A Library of Things is a collection of items held by a library that you can borrow with your library card. This collection contains non-traditional library items such as tools, technology, recreational items, games, toys, and more.
Borrowing
Items within our Library of Things can be borrowed for 7 days with 1 renewal, unless otherwise specified.
You cannot place holds on these items. They are available first-come, first-served.
Borrowers must be 18 years or older with a valid library card (a library card from a member library of the Southern Tier Library System). The card must be at least 30 days old and in good standing.
Items must be returned to the Alfred Box of Books Library during open hours.
