Become a member

Joining the SE Portland Tool Library is easy! Membership is completely free and will allow you to borrow up to 7 tools a week. To join you need to be:

You will need to follow these simple steps:

  1. Read the Tool Library Rules.
  2. Read and sign our Membership Agreement & Liability waiver (You may wish to print and fill out this form at home to speed the registration process, or simply obtain it when you visit us.)
  3. Provide proof of Identity (a driver’s license, passport, or other government-issued ID with photo).
  4. Provide proof of residency (a utility bill, mortgage statement, lease agreement, car-insurance card, or similar document).

That's it! Simply bring your documents to our location at St. David of Wales Episcopal Church, 2800 SE Harrison St during our Saturday or Tuesday hours and we'll happily sign you up!

You'll be able to borrow up to 7 tools at a time, which must be returned the following Saturday (yes, even if you borrowed them on a Tuesday night!) before 10am or you will incur a fine.

Also, remember that you will not be allowed to use someone else's membership, to share your member number with someone else, or to borrow tools on someone else's behalf.

We are happy to welcome you to the Library. If you'd also like help please volunteer NOW.
