The Sacramento Public Library started a “Library of Things” last year, allowing patrons to check out, among other things, sewing machines and other items that patrons may find useful, but don’t need to own long-term.

what a fantastic idea

Londoners, we have a Library of Things too! It’s in Crystal Palace and you can borrow useful things from there. https://www.libraryofthings.co.uk/

See, this is a great way to give The Means Of Production to the community at large.

A lot of libraries have started adding makerspaces too. Even if they don’t, the sometimes host maker events or crafting events where you can find people in your area with certain hobbies/etc.

this is so awesome!

some places also have tool libraries
