Friends of the Vancleave Library Launch “Library of Things” Program
Vancleave, MS – The Friends of the Vancleave Library are excited to introduce a new community-driven initiative: the Library of Things! This creative program allows Vancleave Library cardholders to borrow specialty items — things you may only need occasionally or want to try before buying.
From party lights to volleyball nets, the Library of Things will offer useful items that go beyond books — and you can help us build it!
📦 We’re currently seeking donations of gently used, working items including:
-
Volleyball Nets
-
Party Lights
-
Speakers
-
Wi-Fi Hotspots
-
DVD/Blu-ray Players
If you’d like to donate, please drop items off at the Vancleave Public Library during open hours.
Let’s work together to grow this unique collection and support our community with more ways to borrow, learn, and share!
