The Guelph Tool Library loans specialized tools for repair, maintenance, food preparation, entertainment, arts, and crafts. Members share knowledge, skills and resources to help build community resilience.
Founded in 2016, the Guelph Tool Library provides sustainability-savvy individuals and groups with low-cost, space-saving access to a variety of equipment. The volunteer-driven, membership-based lending library includes tools and resources for an array of DIY activities including gardening, construction and home renovations or repairs, crafting, event hosting and parties, audio/visual projects, and more. Now, needing more space to grow, we are moving to a larger unit within their current home of Old Quebec Street Shoppes.
