Library of Things...

We have added a few new THINGS recently. 

Is your car check engine light on? Then borrow our code reader and find out what code is. It's easy to look up your make and model and the code online and find out what the trouble may be. 

The Fisher Price Code-a-pillar is a fun toy that teaches kids coding by making the code-a-pillar follow the commands given.

Did you DVD player die but you still want to have a movie marathon? We have mini DVD player to borrow that will plug right in to your TV at home. OR if you are traveling borrow the portable one for your car. And YES, we still have a lot of DVDs to borrow.
