Hurricane Helene Update

Tool Library Reopening!

The Tool Library is OPENING! We will be back to normal hours starting Saturday, October 12th. 

Most loans due during the storm have been extended and fees removed. If you need assistance with tools or fees on your account, please reach out via phone or email.

It will take some time to sort out inventory with items that were taken out before the storm. Please be patient with our staff and volunteers if something you need is not available. 

Physical and Monetary Donations

Our volunteers continue to assist critical relief efforts alongside the Repair Cafe. They have worked on dozens of chainsaws and generators to keep the important cleanup work going!! 
Please consider donating to help us continue! If you have any of the following items available here in Asheville, please bring them to our facility at Smith Mill Works (16 Smith Mill Rd.). If you would like to ship, please reach out to librarian@ashevilletoollibrary.org to arrange this.

All Donations will support the Tool Library's efforts to get resources to our community at this critical time
