What is The Tool Library

The Tool Library at Seed Lab operates like a traditional library for our members. But, instead of checking out the latest from your favorite author, you can check out a tool for your latest home improvement project or to learn a new skill. We have an assortment of tools to lend to our members with the goal of promoting sustainability, resource sharing and a community-minded attitude. 

What We Do & Why

The Tool Library at Seed Lab is a community resource dedicated to enriching the existing community through sustainability and resource sharing.  The Seed Lab is a project of the Anchorage Museum, focused on programming around climate, community, connections and change. To make this library of tools as accessible as possible we are offering members a sliding scale fee to join and harge only a small yearly membership fee is to cover our operational costs, repair the tools, and purchase additional inventory. The Seed Lab strives to benefit the community through providing quality tools in this Tool Library accessible to everyone.
