Library of Things

The library offers much more than traditional books, DVDs, and music. Check out our Library of Things collections below – and let us know if you have a non-traditional interest we can explore!

Board Games

Whether you’re looking for a family fun night or weekend of gaming with your friends, the Georgetown Peabody Library has a collection of board and card games sure to please. We feature popular games for all ages like Betrayal at Hill House, Monopoly, and Disney Guess Who! Board games may be borrowed for three weeks and must be checked out and returned to the Georgetown Library. Please do not return our board games  in the book drop. Browse through our Board Game Binder to find the right game for you!

Garden Tools

Let’s get growing! The Georgetown Peabody Library offers a collection of gardening tools for Georgetown library patrons to borrow for up to one week. While we hope to include many more tools over time, this collection of 27 items includes lots of unique tools experienced gardeners will want to try out. We have tools for weeding, planting, digging and pruning, and testing. This collection is available thanks to a generous donation from the Friends of the Georgetown Peabody Library. Browse the Garden Tool Binder for more information. Those who wish to borrow our garden tools must review our Borrowing Policy and agree to and sign the Borrower Agreement.

Mobile Hotspots

A mobile hotspot is light and portable, which makes it quick and convenient to access the Internet anytime, in locations where T-Mobile wireless network is available. There are no fees for the device or service. Hotspots may be borrowed for one week and renewed once if there is no waiting list. Devices must be picked up and returned to the Georgetown Peabody Library. Those who wish to borrow a hotspot must agree to and sign the Mobile Hotspot Lending Policy

STEM Kits

STEM kits and games include building materials, robotics, science kits, and games that focus on STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) concepts. STEM kits may be borrowed for three weeks and must be checked out and returned to the Georgetown Peabody Library. Please do not return our STEM kits in the book drop! Browse through our STEM Kit Binder to find the right kit for you!

Telescope

Explore the night sky! The Library offers an Orion StarBlast Telescope Kit for loan. The telescope may be borrowed for one week and must be checked out and returned to the Georgetown Peabody Library.
