West Seattle Tool Library (WSTL)
Founded in 2010 as a 501(c)(3) non-profit with the Mission to be a community-led project to provide pay-what-you-can community access to a wide range of tools, training, and relevant advice. WSTL was one of the world’s first tool libraries; now there are hundreds
WSTL has more than 1,000 Members
WSTL Tool Librarians are currently the only paid staff of WSTL and report to the Board of Directors, currently composed of 9 Members
WSTL is located at the Youngstown Cultural Arts Center – 4408 DELRIDGE WAY SW, near the West Seattle Bridge
WSTL Hiring Qualifications
Passion for DIY projects, tools, and serving community Members

The following stories were submitted by WSTL Members for a 2023 grant proposal:
“WSTL is a pillar for our community, providing not only the tools, but sharing the
knowledge necessary to complete the tasks.”“Sharing tools with neighbors helps me feel like I’m in a supportive community where people care about one another and where we do things together.”
“The first 6 months of being homeowners we were fortunate to have utilized the tool library at least every other week. The staff were so helpful, friendly and we were able to meet neighbors during drop-off and pick-up. This is one of the best resources West Seattle has to offer to its community.”
“Some of the first friendly faces I met in West Seattle were at the tool library! As a brown woman folks often do not expect me to be able to fix things around the house myself. The volunteers at the tool library treated me with respect. Successfully executing these house projects gave me a lot of confidence in my own abilities and pride in my home which allowed me to be a more engaged neighbor.”
“I love the WSTL so much. It teaches repair, it makes woodworking and building accessible to a much wider group. …WSTL also aims to inspire people to participate in community projects such as park restorations and pursue sustainability through fun projects like backyard gardens, home energy improvements, water harvesting, and other environmental projects.”
“In our family, WSTL has been an invaluable resource. When we bought our house, it needed many repairs, but hiring professional contractors would have stretched our budget too thin. Instead, we turned to WSTL, where we were able to borrow all the tools we needed, from power drills to ladders. Furthermore, WSTL’s workshops and educational resources empowered us to tackle these repairs ourselves, helping us to save a significant amount of money while also gaining new skills.”
Candidate Process:
Visit the WSTL website: wstools.org
Visit the WSTL facilities (4408 DELRIDGE WAY SW, SEATTLE WA 98106) during business hours, let one of the Librarians know you are a potential candidate to be a paid or Volunteer Librarian and ask to be shown around

Anybody know if that cat has a warm place to sleep? https://postimg.cc/gallery/dVTDM2m
Seen on 32nd bw Henderson and Trenton.
DoorDash recently notified me that they will be raising fees in Seattle because the city is now forcing them (and similar companies) to pay a minimum wage of $26.40 / hour per a new law for gig economy workers.
This sounds like great news to me, as I’m a strong labor supporter, but the way DoorDash talks about it in their announcement makes it sound like they’re complaining about having to pay their drivers more and is taking it out on the consumer. On the other hand, I know these issues aren’t always simple, so I’m curious if anyone in this community who drives for DoorDash or similar companies might be willing to share their opinion?
