Library of Things

Borrow don’t buy

The Buxton Library of Things provides affordable access to over 100 useful things that you don’t need to own.

The aim is to enable local people to live more sustainably by sharing resources. Fees are low and ‘pay as you feel’. Browse and reserve your items online, then collect / return from Buxton Library Mondays 5-7pm and Saturdays 10am-12noon.

Please be aware that when you join the Library of Things online that it may take a few hours for an admin to approve and make your membership live so that you can then reserve items.

We are grateful to Derbyshire County Council who have allowed us to occupy an area within Buxton Library on Kents Bank Road, and to the many donors of Things. The inventory continues to grow steadily. 

Would you like to help out?

If you can spare a couple of hours a month to help as a volunteer we’d love to hear from you – where required full training will be provided. Contact library@transitionbuxton.co.uk.
