Brooklyn’s new musical instrument lending library a smash hit
BPL: Almost all instruments checked out immediately
A new program allowing patrons to borrow musical instruments at Brooklyn Public Library is an overnight sensation.
The library officially launched the Musical Instrument Lending Library at Grand Army Plaza on Wednesday, and all of the instruments — except for a few ukuleles — were checked out by Thursday.
Five guitars, four violins, five ukuleles, five drum pads (four individual and one set) and four electronic keyboards can be borrowed by adults for up to two months at a time.
