How it works.

Explore available tools
Reserve tools online or by phone
Pick up tools at the Walla Walla Tool Library
Friday: 1:00-3:00 PM
Return tools and provide feedback
Share your experience and stay involved!
The WW Tool Library is mobile, but most of the time, we are parked directly behind WWU Campus Security at 309 S. College Ave (near 4th and College Ave) College Place, WA 99324.
Lots of parking is available right beside the trailer.
Your voice to be heard.
Having ideas, plans, and even tools does not guarantee that things will work out. That is why we not only provide gadgets you may need, we also aim to teach you how to solve problems without calling a repair man.
We can’t do this without you, though. So click the link and fill out the form. Tell us what you want to learn about and the best times to teach you. We will use your voices to plan and prepare a wide variety of Workshops for you to enjoy.
