The Vancouver Tool Library is Awesome!

The Vancouver Tool Library (VTL) is a cooperative tool lending library in East Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

We are motivated by a vision of our community empowered by the tools and skills needed to transform our homes and communities into vibrant spaces that reflect a commitment to sustainability. To get there, we are creating a community resource that will reduce the costs of improving and greening the places in which we live, work, and play. We are dedicated to taking a proactive and responsive approach to managing our organization, and adhering to the values of inclusivity, empowerment, community building, member participation, and sustainability in all that we do.

We carry a wide variety of tools for home repair, gardening, and bicycle maintenance, offer affordable workshops, host community events, and offer volunteer opportunities for people who want to get more involved.
