This made me look up what's available in Berlin libraries, and I can also indeed rent a sewing machine! This is genuinely amazing and I love it. I should have made use of my library card for more than just libby
Finland has more than 700 libraries for a population of 5.6 million, offering everything from podcast studios and 3D printing to tennis rackets and swimming pool passes.
According to Vänttinen, the most borrowed items after books in Helsinki libraries are spaces: rooms that can be pre-booked, free of charge, to meet, study, hold political discussions or make music. Among portable items, board games and console games top the list.
