🎉 Happy New Year from the Ottawa Tool Library!


This year marks our tenth anniversary and it's astonishing how time has flown. We are immensely grateful to have been a part of this community for the past decade and eagerly anticipate continuing our work for many more years.

We are exploring various ways to celebrate and want to hear from you, our members and supporters! We would love to receive any ideas you may have on how we can celebrate this incredible milestone together.

Let us know if you have any ideas or if you want to get involved in helping us with the celebrations by emailing tenyears@ottawatoollibrary.com.

In January, our board member David is hosting a Tool Jam on Saturdays at OTL from 10 am to 11 am to brainstorm together and collect ideas. Your input is invaluable as we commemorate this incredible journey together.
