How to Share and Borrow

Practice sharing and borrowing: ask before taking, agree on how long, and give the item back.

How to Share and Borrow: step-by-step guide

Sharing works when both people agree first. Watch the video, then practice the words.

  1. Ask before you take something, such as Can I use your marker?

  2. Wait for the person to answer yes or no.

  3. If they say yes, agree on how long you will use it.

  4. Take care of the item while you have it.

  5. Give it back when you said you would and say thank you.

  6. If they say no, look for another one or ask someone else.

Ask Iris

See it first. Go with confidence.

Hi, I'm Iris! Tell me what you're looking for: a place to preview (like "Park Library" or "a dentist office"), a specific city (like "Lansing, MI" or "Petoskey, MI"), or a how-to video (like "tying shoes" or "self-checkout"), and I'll find it for you.

Or browse all tours or the video library.
