Library of Things
The Woodbridge Library of Things was created to extend the library’s mission of education and personal growth. Our guiding principles for adding items to the collective are to acquire things that educate and satisfy the user’s curiosity, and to save patrons the expense of buying things that might only get limited use.
- Holds can only be made over the phone, email, or in person via Item-Level Hold.
- Check out & returns must take place at the reference desk.
- Limit one (1) Thing at a time. Case by case exceptions can be made.
- Renewals may be made for objects that do not have any holds. Items can only be renewed twice.
- There is a late fee of $1/day. ITEMS DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY RENEW.
Woodbridge Town Library Things are only available for pickup at the Woodbridge Town Library.
Please call the information desk at (203) 389-3434 to check on an item’s availability.
