Chicago’s community tool lending library. Providing equitable access to tools, equipment, and information to empower all Chicagoans to learn, share, and create.
Donate tools at Half Acre June 4-12 in support of the Chicago Tool Library. We're accepting useful items for home repairs, woodworking, gardening, cooking, crafting, audio/visual projects, and camping. Tools must be in good working condition.
