More About The
Tool Library

Central PA Tool Library is working to establish a hand and power tool lending library for short-term, off-site use. Tool Libraries provide a low cost alternative to purchasing and storing tools, making it possible for members to undertake projects that involve equipment that may be out of reach in price or difficult to store.  This type of library reduces wasteful spending on tools that are needed for a limited period or simple repair.

 

As we grow, we plan to create a maker space for members to work on their personal projects.  We also intend to provide educational opportunities and hands on programs for our members and the community. These will include Do-it-Yourself (DIY) workshops, Dare-to-Repair clinics, and Community Give Back Days.

​

Discounted membership rates will be offered to veterans, first responders, seniors, and students.

 

We recently found the perfect commercial space to open our first tool lending branch.  If you choose to donate, your funds will be used to stock and build out the location.  We also accept hand and power tool donations. 

 

The organization has been established as a 501(c)(3) domestic nonprofit corporation and all donations will be tax deductible.
