#PeterboroughON - #LibraryOfThings

"The Library is about more than just books, music, and media. We have a growing collection of 'things' that you can check out on your library card or use at the Library.

Borrowing and sharing things is a great way to save money while helping the environment.


#NatureBags

We have a variety of Nature Bags you can choose from and borrow with your library card.


#BoardGames

Board games are available to use when you are visiting the library. We have a collection of games for all ages and interests.

#CarbonDioxide Monitors

Curious about the air quality in your home? You can now borrow a Carbon Dioxide monitor with your Library card!


Community #SeedExchange

Drop off your extra seeds and pick up some new ones! Please don't take more than you leave.

Thank you to #Nogojiwanong #MutualAid for building the Seed Exchange display in the Main Library lobby.


Coding Bots

Check out a Sphero Mini to code at home or visit the Library and use a Sphero Bolt in the Children's Area.


#DiscGolf Kits

This game is played by throwing discs at a series of targets along a Disc Golf course. The rules of play are very similar to regular golf.


Launchpads

Check out pre-loaded tablets with fun puzzles, games, interactive books, and other activities that introduce STEAM concepts to children ages 3 and up.

@BrentToderian the major bike and pedestrian multi-use pathway in #PeterboroughON, where it crosses any road has signs like this...

And, startlingly, the cars have no indication whatsoever, you're just supposed to run across multiple lanes whenever there's a break in traffic (traffic does NOT stop for crossers).

Wait for gap Indeed
