Circular Library Network
Circular Library Network (CLN) builds smart, modular systems that enable communities to share tools and everyday items, making circular living accessible and scalable.
CLN addresses the twin challenges of resource overconsumption and limited access to essential goods by enabling communities to share tools, equipment, and household items instead of purchasing them individually. This reduces material waste, carbon emissions, and financial strain—especially in underserved areas—while promoting a culture of collaboration and sustainable use. By embedding circular infrastructure directly into housing, libraries, and public spaces, CLN makes low-impact living both practical and equitable.
CLN provides a modular sharing system that includes IoT-connected lockers and a real-time inventory platform, allowing communities to lend and manage shared tools, appliances, and equipment with ease. The system automates checkouts, returns, and maintenance tracking, enabling 24/7 access without staff. It’s designed to be customizable, locally managed, and scalable—making circular resource sharing simple, secure, and sustainable for housing, libraries, and public institutions.
Each item shared through CLN avoids the need for multiple individual purchases, significantly reducing carbon emissions. For example, sharing a power drill, which typically emits ~35 kg CO₂e in production, across 20 users instead of 20 individual purchases can save over 650 kg CO₂e. Across an average CLN site with 50–100 items in regular circulation, this equates to 5–8 tons of CO₂e avoided per year. At scale, with 500 systems deployed, CLN could save over 3,000 tons of CO₂e annually, supporting measurable climate impact aligned with EU Green Deal goals.
