Toy libraries work in much the same manner as a regular library, items for loan are toys, games and puzzles and of course books for ages 1-12 years.
Children and parents visit the library during operating hours, select the items they wish to borrow and check they are in working order and all parts are there. The loan period is weekly, alternate week, or monthly after which time items must be renewed or returned. Upon return, they are checked to ensure they are clean and in good working order, and then new items can be borrowed.
We do have some differences from a regular library:
A registration fee, Deposit and Subscription fee is required to join. We are a community-based organisation with no government funding. Fees cover the cost of purchasing toys, employing a part-time coordinator, insurance and other operational expenses
Members help out in the library on a roster basis and assist with fundraising activities such as sausage sizzles.
We’re open for borrowing six times a week.
Who uses toy libraries?
Our toy library caters mostly for younger children (1–8 years), although we do have games and puzzles for older children.
