Bristol is opening a new site
Chris T. · 19 Nov 2025
We’re thrilled to pass on the news that Share Bristol will be opening a 4th location at Winterbourne Library in February 2026 in partnership with Frome Valley Environmental Network.

This will mean even more folk across Bristol and South Gloucestershire can borrow instead of buy — saving money, cutting down on clutter, and making a real difference for the environment.

By buying a new or renewal membership via our Crowdfunder, you'll be helping them to open the next location operating out of Winterbourne Library. Thanks to match funding from Aviva, they will receive double the amount of your payment, meaning they can fund the start up costs for Share Bristol Winterbourne.

Great new resource in from Scotland

The Share and Repair community in Scotland has commissioned a report on "How Scotland's sharing libraries set membership fees". Interesting reading for all libraries of things.

We're now listing items from Lend Engine and myTurn sites
Chris T. · 18 Nov 2025
If you run your organisation on Lend Engine or MyTurn, we can show a preview of your items here on the directory. It also means that your items will show on the item search, which also has a map view (https://www.borrowmore.org/items/map)

We check your site once a month ... if you want to make updates you can click the button to "Update my items" which will check your site within an hour.

If you want to remove an item from the BorrowMore listings, just visit that item and click to remove it, and we won't show it again.
