The Transition Linlithgow Tool Library is your local resource for affordable access to tools, equipment and resources! We are open every Tuesday Night between 4 and 8pm at The Workshop at Donaldson's School. You can access The Workshop from the side entrance down the left-hand side of the school.

Open Workshop

Come make use of our fantastic workshop space to work on your own projects or help other tool library members on one of our community projects. Our workshop has a comprehensive collection of hand tools, power tools and machinery. We also have 3 heavy duty sewing machines and furniture upcycling materials.

All wood, fabric and consumables are free for members to use in their own projects.

Tool Borrowing

The very ESSENCES of the Tool Library! Our members have access to hundreds of tools and pieces of equipment from our ever-growing inventory. Everything from power drills to slow cookers.

Browse our inventory of tools and sign up as a member on our MyTurn website. Remember to reserve your tools in advance to guarantee that they are waiting for you when you come to collect.

Volunteering

Join our team of volunteers to help run the Tool Library. Our volunteers’ sort, mend and maintain all the kindly donated tools. Tools are then loaded into the MyTurn system ready to be borrowed by our Tool Library members. We are also looking for skilled volunteers who can supervise the workshop space at Donaldson's School allowing us to keep it open for longer.

Become a Member
