No, the Tool Library is open to everyone ages 18 and older.

You can be part of the Greenbelt Makerspace Cooperative by joining online anytime or in-person at the library during our open hours. Once you are a member, tools can be checked out from the library during open hours.

8 tools at a time for 1 week. Late fees of $7 per week are incurred if the tools are not returned

on time or. The full Borrowing Policy can be found in the Borrowers Agreement

Tools can be renewed once. Thereby allowing you to have it for a maximum of 2 weeks. Renew by emailing staff@make125.org. Late fees incurred are prorated from the date you emailed.

Yes, members can reserve available tools at the TOOL LIBRARY WEBSITE. You must be logged in,

click on the tool and reserve on the calendar.

No, all borrowers must have their own membership for liability reasons.

Please don’t hesitate to ask, there are no stupid questions and many of us started here as new tool users! However, please keep in mind that our librarians are volunteers, so if you can be patient and wait for them to have a free moment, they may be able to help you, although not everyone is familiar with specific tools. Please understand that some volunteers may not know more about the tool than you.

We accept tools in good working condition. Read more about donating tools HERE.

As an all-volunteer organization, we love volunteers. All volunteers must be members first. Click HERE for more information or email staff@make125.org.

Late fees are $7/week per tool – even on days we are closed because someone else could be using them. We are all sharing these tools! You will not be charged more than the value of the tool When tools are 60 days late, members will be given 1 week to return them before membership is potentially revoked and a replacement fee may be charged.

We get it, life is crazy and sometimes people forget stuff. Don’t do that shame spiral thing where you feel like you can never show your face again – we are cool if you are cool, everyone makes mistakes and it’s more important for us to get tools back then to shame someone or burden them financially with late fees – just email us or come in during open hours and we’ll work it out! That being said, don’t take advantage of our goodwill, it’s bad karma.
