Gizzago is software for toy libraries, tool libraries, baby and sling libraries, and other groups that lend things to their neighbours.

For
Volunteer-run toy, tool, and lending libraries
Worth noticing
The site says funder reports suppress small counts as “fewer than 5” to help prevent families from being identified.

Field notes

The described desk workflow covers more than loans: a volunteer can count returned pieces, sign up a household, take session payments and sign off cash-up. Reservations produce a pick list, while reports are described as drawing on recorded family, age, session and volunteer data. Gizzago says a test migration moved a toy library catalogue and 1,046 photos; that is presented as a test run, not a general migration guarantee.
