When most people think about the library, they picture shelves f i l led with books, computers, and perhaps a quiet place to read or study. While those things are certainly part of what we offer at the Kimball Public Library, today’s libraries have grown into something much more. One example is our Library of Things. The Library of Things is exactly what it sounds like: a collection of useful items that community members can borrow, just like they would a book. The idea is simple. Sometimes you don’t need to own something; you just need to use it for a little while. At Kimball Public Library, our collection includes: Drill Portable jump starter with a digital air compressor Rototiller Mobile hot spots (mobile internet) Yonana soft serve maker Walker with seat Tortilla press Orion telescope Stud finder Pressure washer Pickleball set Pasta maker Paper shredder Oculus Quest 2 VR headset Kids microscope kit Janome sewing machine Ironing board and iron Ice cream maker
