If your library includes musical instruments, not just ukulele, but flute, trumpet, and more as part of your Library of Things could you share some information? We will be receiving a donation of assorted instruments from a family in memory of a long term board trustee. We have concerns and questions about safely checking out these instruments especially woodwind/brass. 1. How do you keep the instruments clean/sanitized? Is it even possible? 2. If the instruments require a 'reed' to be played, do you provide it or have the patron get that on their own? 3. Do you even think it's possible to have a "library of things" that includes instruments? At this time, we're thinking of just accepting percussion/string instruments. Any advice and guidance is appreciated. BillieJo Bluemer Director Rauchholz Memorial Library 1140 N Hemlock Rd Hemlock MI 48626 989-642-8621
