The local "pay TV" channel, mio TV, has just published a feature on the toy rental club. It's on their Mom-On-Demand channel (Channel 307) and carries the simple title "Mom Inspired: Toy Rental Club".
There's currently a short trailer on this webpage, but you'll need to sign up for mio TV on either your television or mobile phone in order to view the full programme.

Guardian Newspaper Article on Toy Libraries
Today's Guardian newspaper has an article by Zoe Williams on the advantages of using a toy library rather than buying new toys:
Borrow with mother - cut your child's carbon footprint with a toy library
"Why fill your home with brightly coloured plastic," asks the article, "when toy libraries offer a cheaper and more sustainable option?" Not-for-profit toy libraries are common in British cities but the article notes that despite the much-needed service they provide to poorer communities especially, many libraries often only a few days per week and others are understaffed.
