_Edmonton Tool Library Volunteer_

Seeking Volunteer Members

Time Commitment: 3-20hrs/month

WANT TO GET INVOLVED?

Volunteers are at the heart of the Edmonton Tool Library (ETL), and there are a number of ways to get involved

Tool Librarian

Our Librarians interact with members:
lending tools, managing memberships, and organizing our inventory.

They also foster the sense of community at the ETL, explaining the library to visitors, sharing upcoming events, and building relationships with members.

Shifts are 2-4 hours, during Tool Library hours.

Tool Doctor

We're fortunate to receive many donated tools, but they're not always in good condition (or even working).

Tool Doctors are responsible for keeping our inventory in safe, working condition, but they also strip tools for parts and sometimes repair or even rebuild them.

They also diagnose and repair any tools that come back broken or 'not working', plus conduct regular upkeep like maintaining blades, bits and belts.

Shifts are variable, but require significant expertise.

Tool Expert

Sometimes, learning from YouTube videos and blog posts isn't enough Our Tool Experts have sufficient general expertise to offer advice regarding the best methods and tools for most home reno and personal DIY projects.

They ensure that members leave with not only the right tools, but the knowledge and protective gear to make sure they can do it safely.

Shifts are four hours, during Tool Library hours. This role requires significant expertise.
