Library of Things
The Burlington Public Library is excited to offer a diverse collection of non-traditional materials through our Library of Things. A sample of our offerings include Roku sticks with streaming services and movies pre-loaded (Netflix, Disney+, and HBO Max), American Girl Doll kits, board games, and much more!
All items in our Library of Things can be placed on hold and check out for one week with no renewals. When they're returned, please give us a couple of days to check the contents before they're checked in. Don't worry, you won't be charged any late fees--especially since the library is Fine Free as of 2019!
If you have any suggestions for items we may add, please email ref@burlingtonpl.org.
