Did you know the Sacramento Public Library lends kitchenware? What you can borrow
Shari Nichelini worked for the Sacramento Public Library for 42 years. Starting as a library assistant, she worked her way across many of the local libraries in the system before retiring as circulation services coordinator in early 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic hit. “So much for all the retirement plans,” Nichelini said, in reference to stay-at-home orders brought on by the pandemic. Instead of presents at her January retirement party, she asked well-wishers to bring an interesting cake pan. Thanks in part to that retirement party, Sacramento library patrons can check out hundreds of different pans, muffin tins and cookie cutters from the Shari Nichelini Cake Pan Library . Inside the Library of Things There are plenty of paper-and-ink books at Sacramento’s 28 library locations and mountains of digital materials online. But the library was an early trailblazer in building what is known as a “Library of Things.” With a library card, people can borrow sewing machines, lawn-care tools, musical instruments and more. According to Christy Aguirre, collection management supervisor for the Sacramento Public Library, Nichelini “dreamed about introducing a cake pan library. For years, she talked about it.” To Aguirre, libraries that offered more than books is a no-brainer.
