About the Organization
Library of Things is a physical space and an online catalogue of things that people can borrow locally in Saskatoon. Our inventory represents an alternative to buying things - a community-based solution to address issues like accessibility, sustainability, and resilience. We believe that lifestyle and circumstance shouldn’t limit your opportunities and experiences.
