Welcome to the Thingdom!

Why buy when you can borrow? The Thingdom is our brand new lending library of things, from which you will be able to borrow from a wealth of exciting items! 

So How Does It Work?

When you come to the library, you'll see that on a bookcase across from the circulation desk we have a display containing a number of browsable cards. These cards correlate to items that are currently available. If something catches your eye - just take the card to the circulation desk, and staff will retrieve the item for you.

Lending Guidelines:

These items help support the library’s mission to provide a variety of information and materials to support curiosity, free inquiry, and life-long learning. Please view the full Thingdom circulation policy on our policy page.

  1. Thingdom loan periods vary by item however the majority of items circulate for one week.

  2. There will be no renewals allowed for Thingdom items due to high demand.

  3. Thingdom items can not be placed on hold.

  4. Thingdom items will not be shared via delivery with other libraries. All items are borrowed from and returned directly to the Milne Public Library.

  5. Thingdom items need to be returned to the Circulation Desk during the library’s open hours. Some items may take 24-48 hours to check in from your account.

  6. All items must be returned in the same condition as issued, barring normal wear and tear.

  7. The patron agrees to pay for the loss or theft of or damage to any item and further agrees to accept the library’s assessment of condition and assessment of fair restitution for damage, dirtiness, delinquency, and/or loss of items in part or in total. This restitution amount could equal up to the full replacement cost of the item.

  8. The library reserves the right to refuse the loan of any item at its discretion.
