We cannot accept every tool and we reserve the right to turn away, redistribute, or sell tools we cannot use, easily service/repair, or have space to store.

STATUS: we are collecting donations in an effort to build out the Tool Library and other resources. We are currently aiming to open memberships in July 2026.

Membership

Using the Tool Library is a lot like borrowing from a public library, but instead of books we’ll have shelves full of tools, gear and other items for you to borrow. You can search and reserve items through our online inventory and pick them up during our open hours.

To borrow you’ll need a Tool Library membership. Memberships are available for Ventura County residents over 18+ with a valid ID.

Tool Library memberships are pay-what-you-can. You choose what you want to pay based on what you can afford. We recommend $100 for your one-year membership, but members can pay much less or much more. Membership donations over $100 help provide subsidized memberships for low-income community members.

Our inventory goals include a range of tools for woodworking, home repair, gardening, cooking, sewing, outdoor gear, games and more. Items are rented for 7 days and there are no additional rental fees. Browse our growing inventory here.
