That’s so awesome. I loved the tool lending library when we lived there (or as Mrs. Wiremonkey called it, “The murder weapon library”)
I’d love to borrow a cider press. I’ve thought about paying for one, but it doesn’t make sense.
Same on the cider press. Also a dehydrator. They’re just so bulky.
They should enact the new LA Library policy with no overdue fees so people can just keep the stuff.
Wut. Thank you for enlightening me to this policy. I mostly read their digital offerings but sometimes there are things you can only get in physical form.
It seems like this might only apply to books though, right…? They fined the bejeezus out of me for a late DVD return this year. In my defense, it was a series loaned out for the same amount of time as a movie and I was traveling unexpectedly.
But then other FTCers wouldn’t get to use them
Berkeley still charges overdue fees for tools.
