Inner West Tool Library Sydney

Every borrowed lawn mower, repaired drill, shared DIY tip and welcoming conversation starts with our volunteers — and we couldn’t be more grateful for them.

This , we want to thank the 40 active volunteers who give their time, skills and care to make the Inner West Tool Library Sydney what it is today.

If you’d like to get involved with the IWTL, please get in touch. Whether it’s helping out on a Saturday morning at Petersham Bowlo or supporting the library in other ways, every contribution helps our little committee-run library grow. 🛠️💚

The Inner West Tool Library Sydney is open this weekend – and we have some new items ready to borrow! Come by from 9AM to 12PM at the Petersham Bowlo, if you’ve got long weekend DIY plans 🔧

Happy Valentine’s Day from the Inner West Tool Library 💗 We’re open every Saturday in February for any of your DIY needs.

An old pair of clamps saved the day to hold up the IWTL awnings last weekend 🗜️ 🗜️ Thanks to our team of librarians who always reuse and recycle our donations in the most creative ways!

Thank you to all our members, volunteers and other local legends who have made 2025 such a great year for the Inner West Tool Library Sydney!

The library will be closed for the holidays from Saturday, 27 December. We’ll reopen on Saturday, 3 January for drop-offs only.

We’ll see you this weekend from 9AM to 12 PM for any last pick-ups. Otherwise we’ll see you in the new year!

Happy holidays from the team at the Inner West Tool Library 🎁

Thank you to our friends at for generously donating an iPad, helping the tool library check-in and out a bit easier.

PSA: Next week is the last week to borrow before the Christmas break, so make sure to get in any orders before we close for the festive season.
