How it helps

Use it for a focused task

This site helps people find existing tool libraries in their region or start new ones. It includes a searchable directory of real and sample libraries, a step-by-step startup guide, recommended tool categories for collections, membership and liability notes, and printable inventory/checkout forms.

Use the directory table to search or filter by region and availability. Click any listing for details.

Scroll down for the startup guide if no library exists near you. Use the printable forms section to download or copy templates for your own library operations.
