The Tool Lending Library will be like a public library except for borrowing tools. Our goals include:
• Equity: provide access to everyone for making repairs and creating
• Sustainability: reduce number of tools manufactured and trashed
• Community: abundance for all our neighbors
• Growth: opportunity for growth, learning, experimentation
• Cost: share cost of purchase and maintenance
• Space: access to hundreds of tools without needing to store them
• Knowledge: space for learning, training and workshops
• Confidence: build skills and confidence at your own pace
There will be an annual library/membership fee to defray the costs of rent and insurance that is not yet decided, but likely on a sliding scale by income.
We also plan to resume the repair cafes, perhaps using the area just outside the Granite building.
Greenbelt MakerSpace continues to work with The SPACE: Free Art for All In Beltway Mall.
We’ll plan an annual meeting in early 2022.
