What's the coolest thing your library has available to check out? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Inspired by me learning that I can check out solar panels (hiking sized, not house sized) at the library.

My library has really good access to online catalogs with ebooks, audiobooks, music, and movies. I rarely come across a fiction book I want to read that isn't available, all without even having to go into the physical library.

"Lots of books" may not be the answer you were expecting, but the volume of media they have access to is truly notable compared to any other library system I've ever been a member of.
