All County libraries, including our Atherton Library, have introduced karaoke machines to their library of things. These machines are available on a first come, first served basis to borrow, and quickly flew off the shelves in the first week. In the meantime, there is so much more to borrow from the library, including: GoPros, sewing machines, bikes, ukuleles.
