In my home town (Tallinn, Estonia), one library (Pelguranna library) also lends out tools.
Tools can be selected from their library catalog, currently it seems to have 69 items. :)
I haven't used it because I now live out of town and have a plentiful supply of instruments, but it seems really neat that they did it. :)
That's so cool! Such an amazing resource. I wish more library's did that.
