I recently saw a magnet for retrieving things like keys that have fallen down a narrow space or in the water (off a boat for example). I'm thinking this would be a good thing to add to our library of things.</div>

<p>Hi, library brain trust! We have come into some money recently and would like to spend it on creating a Library of Things. I am looking for practical ideas, not STEM, etc. as we already have a good STEM collection. I have ordered a mobile projector and a
heavy-duty sewing machine but wondered what items others have in a similar collection. I am also gathering input from our patrons and staff, just looking for as many ideas as I can find! Thanks!</p>
