OUR LENDING COLLECTION
Spark Central’s book and DVD lending collection are curated by a team of Spokane’s most engaged and interesting thinkers according to item type and genre: software, educational toys and games, fiction, poetry, and the rest. With a commitment to local works, our curatorial team helps shorten the distance between great creative work and a curious mind looking for something new to read or do in a sea of options.
By asking creative people what they are reading and watching, we’re building a bank of local, specialized knowledge that can ignite the creative, innovative, imaginative ideas waiting to leave the station and launch into the world!
You can also browse our unique collection of Creative Kits, each of which includes supplies and an activity guide to get started on a number of creative skills. Members can check out creative kits to use in our Station during any of our open hours.
TECHNOLOGY ACCESS
Our technology can be checked out to use within our station (not for take-home lending).
