Additional Information

The Kitchener/ Waterloo Library of Things, which is currently under development, will be a space where community members can borrow infrequently used items such as tools or camping equipment. Members will reduce their impact on the environment and this library will provide employment opportunities for people who face barriers to employment. To ensure the library is sustainable in the long run, we have found a registered charity who will take over our library once it is created. However, we need a marketing/ branding plan to launch our library.
