If you’d like to support our cause and you’ve got some Things, money, or time you’d like to share, please read on…
Donate Things
We appreciate all offers of good quality new or second-hand items for the Library. Please email us at libraryofthings@shareoxford.org to discuss. Please note, with limited space we need to be selective and cannot accept all donations so it is important to contact us before bringing your potential donation along.
The Library aims to stock a wide variety of items which are useful to people occasionally, within the following broad categories:
- DIY
- Outdoors
- Sports
- Leisure
- Domestic
- Cooking
- Gardening
- Children’s/babies’
- Transport
- what else? – tell us
People sometimes ask us for things that we haven’t got, and – trying to be ever more useful – we try to see if anyone out there can help us get them. These are some things we would like to have:
| Home etc | Tools | Fun / Events |
| Baking/cake tins | Belt sander | Airbed pump |
| Carpet cleaner | Dust sheets | Camp bed |
| Clothes – formal ones for job interviews | Garden trolley (large) | Collapsible stroller |
| De-humidifier | Jeweller’s visor | Cool box |
| Garden umbrella | Log splitter | Craft equipment |
| Keyboard hoover | Multi-tester | Folding tables |
| Sugar thermometer | Pipe/wire finder | Garden games |
| Knife sharpener | Scaffolding tower (small) | Hotplates |
| Sewing scissors | Soil sieve | Portable PA system (battery powered) |
| Ratchet straps for roof rack | Wire cutters | Re-usable cups, crockery and cutlery for parties |
| Window vac | Workbench | Walkie-talkies |
Please email us at libraryofthings@shareoxford.org so we can arrange to talk about your possible donation. We are also open to having items on loan under a Lending Agreement between SHARE Oxford and the owner.
