A Library of Things is a collection of non-traditional library items that are available for borrowing. Many libraries have incorporated a Library of Things collection to include the circulation of puzzles, baking pans, sewing machines, telecopes, and so much more!
The Hasbrouck Heights Public Library currently has 4 different kinds of collections that fall under the Library of Things umbrella. Each of these collections have their own policies and rules, and are available to borrow for at-home use!
Puzzle Sets
Put it together, break it apart and bring it back to borrow another! Puzzle Sets are gently used and donated to us by generous library patrons. These Puzzle Sets are great activities to enjoy during family gatherings, at friendly get togethers, or all on your own. The library has over 30 designs to choose from! See the Puzzle Sets Policy for details on elibility, loan period, and more. Available to borrow from the Media Section.
NOTE: Some puzzles in the slider below may be out of commission. Please speak with a staff member to confirm if a puzzle you want is still available.
Mobile Hotspots
Borrow a Mobile Hotspot for Wi-Fi internet access at home or on vacation! Connect your devices to these Mobile Hotspots to search the web, check social media, and more! See the Mobile Hotspot page for details on eligibility, loan period, and more. Available to borrow from the Circulation Desk.
