lending library

Heavy Manners Library, an art space and lending library specializing in independent books and zines, holds one every other month.

“We are social animals; we want to go out into the world and engage with each other,” said Mr. Morrison, who keeps a lending library outside his home.

Recently someone “rented” a movie and returned it to the lending library later.

The comic could be found at bookstores, lending libraries and roadside booksellers.

It is believed to be Europe's largest public lending library and houses one of the UK's most important Shakespeare collections.
