Thanks to a generous grant from the North Dakota State Library, the Lake Region Public Library has started a “Library of Things” collection! Things in this collection can be checked out just like a book, but the possibilities are really endless. Current Things at the Lake Region Public Library include DVD binge boxes following themes like Movie Musicals, 80’s Classics, Tim Burton, and more; backpacks with materials for ice fishing and hiking; a laptop; and a mobile hotspot. Soon to be added: a ladder, a microphone for Zoom calls, a soundbar, and tripod. Check out https://devilslakendlibrary.com/library-ofthings/ for a full list of things, or head over to our YouTube page for introductory videos to all of our Things!
