Community Input Survey: Equipment Borrowing

If you could borrow any item from the library, just like you would a book, what would it be?

Loudoun County Public Library is expanding its Library of Things collection. Do you need tools? Gardening supplies, electronics, or something else? Help shape what is included by sharing your priorities and interests.

We also invite you to attend one of our community input sessions:
Monday, March 30, 2-3 p.m. | Gum Spring Library
Wednesday, April 1, 6-8 p.m. | Sterling Library
Saturday, April 18, 10-11 a.m. | Purcellville Library

Thank you for helping us update our collection and continue serving the community's needs.
