## Materials

A computer and a list of items owners have agreed to share.

## Optional AI role

A simple borrowing ledger with clear item and return-status fields.

## Seven-day plan

- [ ] **Day 1**: Ask willing contributors which items they would like to share.

- [ ] **Day 2**: Agree on simple borrowing arrangements and which information to record.

- [ ] **Day 3**: Create a sample ledger with item, availability, and return-status fields.

- [ ] **Day 4**: Build a spreadsheet or simple local prototype using demonstration data.

- [ ] **Day 5**: Write short instructions and test a sample request with a volunteer.

- [ ] **Day 6**: Improve the labels and workflow from the volunteer’s comments.

- [ ] **Day 7**: Give the group the finished ledger and record a question for its next version.
