NOQG Library Materials--Gadgets


Our guild has a unique membership perk.  Each month we will have gadgets available to lend to guild members in good standing.  There will be directions on the usage of each gadget, as well as member comments about the items.

In return, all we ask is that you give us your observations about the gadget such as whether or not you found the item useful, anything you learned while using it, or even if you intend to purchase it for your own use.  These comments become a valuable tool themselves because they will allow members to learn from one another.  Please stop by the Gadget Gal Table and look at what we have for you to borrow for a month.
  
These are the gadgets currently in the NOQG Gadget Library. If you have any questions about the gadgets or this part of the library, please contact Susan Elder .
