Gen Z and millennials have an unlikely love affair with their local libraries
Though they’re sometimes characterized as attention-addled homebodies, younger people see a real value in libraries − one that goes beyond books.

Excellent source of audiobooks. And 3D printers
Mine has a whole maker space in it. It's great.
Also loads of comic books in the form of annuals and TPBs.
There are maker spaces devoted to that around the world called “fab labs” equipped with CNRs, 3d printers, welding gear, etc, but the hourly prices are insane. A library seems like the wrong place for that sort of thing but I’m sure the price is right.
This isn't that involved, but they have several FDM printers, a cricut knockoff, several sewing machines, a serger, looms, and some other stuff. Nothing in the way of wood, metal, or pottery but still lots of interesting stuff that wouldn't have been in a library when I was a kid.
