Glasgow Tool Library
Civic and Social Organizations
A social enterprise working to build a culture of sharing, repairing and making in Glasgow
About us
Glasgow Tool Library is a community-led charity that aims to radically change the way we access and manage resources. Our mission is to build a sustainable and inclusive alternative to consumerism that also promotes community wellbeing and empowerment. Out service works like a regular library, but instead of books, people can access an extensive selection of tools and equipment for their homes, gardens, hobbies and adventures.
