Do you have tools that you don’t use? Give them new life and donate them to the Tool Library.

While our limited space precludes us from taking everything, we are happy to consider any tool donation! We request that all donated tools be in working order. Unfortunately, we cannot accept gas-powered tools, paint sprayers, or cordless tools without functioning lithium batteries.

Below are some items we particularly need. To donate tools, please bring it in to the library during any of our open hours. Antique tools are also welcome! Tax-deductible donation receipts are available upon request.
