The Library of Things, Malton & Norton

The Library of Things Malton & Norton (LoTMN) provides a place where local people can borrow things - like a library, but for normal household items intended for home and domestic use. Borrowing is an alternative to owning more things.

We operate from the Baptist Hall, Railway Street, in Malton, Thursdays from 5-7pm, if there are items that people have reserved to pick up or drop off. We are always looking for volunteers. If you would like to help us you will be made very welcome!

By borrowing we:

  • reduce the impact on our planet and reduce the clutter in our own homes
  • give access to things that may be too costly to buy, too bulky to store or only needed occasionally
  • share the cost of things across our community

The LoT also needs donations of things to lend - tools, toys, camping and sports equipment, crafts, etc. Send an email to libraryofthingsmn@gmail.com to arrange drop-off or come by Thursdays from 5-7pm to drop off items. Please contact us first if you want to donate an item so we can make sure we can accept it.

If you have an idea of an item you would like to borrow that is not currently on our site, please email us and we will see what we can do.
