As a part of the Library of Things, the Hudson Public Library now has a digital radon detector available for checkout. The Airthings Corentium Home Detector provides quick results within 24 hours but also tracks radon levels over longer periods for more accuracy. The results are available on the digital read-out and no lab tests (or fees) are required. Radon is an invisible and odorless radioactive gas that fluctuates daily. It is naturally occurring and found everywhere. Radon is the leading cause of lung cancer for non-smokers.
The Library of Things collection, sponsored by the Hudson Public Library Foundation, allows patrons have access to items needed only occasionally, or to explore a new hobby, sport, or game. For more information on the collection visit the library at 401 5th Street or call us at 319-988-4217.
