Westfield Library Celebrates 123rd Birthday 

There’s now more than just books to check out at the Westfield Washington Public Library. The Westfield Library Foundation gifted an Adult Library of Things to the library in honor of its 123rd birthday today. The collection includes everything from instruments and tool sets to craft supplies and cameras.

“We wanted to give the library a gift the entire community could benefit from,” says Erin Downey, Executive Director of the Westfield Library Foundation. “This collection will allow our neighbors to discover new hobbies, try out new tools, and learn in a way that fits their lifestyle. What a fun way to celebrate the library and all its patrons.”

Located on the second floor of the library on bookshelves near non-fiction, the collection features a variety of tools and resources, including a bicycle tool kit, a rotary cutting set, ukuleles, an electric yarn winder, and a thermal imaging camera to name just a few. All items are available for checkout to adult library cardholders.

Community members are invited to grow the Adult Library of Things by purchasing a gift from the library’s Amazon Wish List at https://ow.ly/OHzB50UjCmO. For more information or to learn about how to support the Adult Library of Things, please visit the Westfield Washington Public Library.
