A neighbor was talking about the tool lending libraries in Oakland and Berkley, CA. Would folks be interested in running a similar experiment at Mitchell Library?

cool!! I would use this service. I'd even pay a low monthly fee.
Maybe the Make Haven folks could help brainstorm on this.

I would definitely want to work on this together. I want to talk to Martha Brogan, the head librarian, now that there seems to be interest as well. I am going to cross post this issue on the Oakland SCF page to see if we can get some advice from Oaklanders as well.

Welcome to the neighborhood. We never got it going. I would still love to see it happen!

Hi Maria - welcome to Westville and to MakeHaven. I'm in a good place to talk about Make and know we have some early discussions going with other local institutions about improving access to tools and spaces to work. But I don't see a near future in which it pushes out a lending library. (lots of complicating factors). But, generally, MakeHaven is a great resource for getting access to expensive tools without buying them. About as close to a Tool Library as we have for now.
Your idea of a website is a great one. I had a similar thought and got directed to NeighborGoods.net while researching existing solutions. It validated my concept, but I didn't look deeply into it. Would love to hear more if you have the time to check it out.
