Russ and Elsa are a community-building duo. Russ has been a consistent presence in the NESTL Bike Shack for quite a few years. We appreciate his positive attitude and willingness to help out whenever and wherever. He is the epitome of a friendly tool library face. Elsa has been working tirelessly to keep our sewing machines in good shape, properly maintained and ready for all your sewing needs. Her attention to detail is unparalleled. Come see Russ to get your bike tuned up or borrow a sewing machine cared for by Elsa. (Russ wanted to show off his bike & trailer that was loaded up for the light rail opening and Elsa wanted to highlight the very photogenic Janome 508A).
André has been an essential member of the Shoreline Tool Library over the past several months, particularly at the Bike Shack. You can find him guiding others as they repair their bikes, ensuring donated bikes are in good operating condition before they’re sold, selling used bikes to eager members, and brightening the Shoreline Tool Library with his infectious smile. His knowledge, consistency and focus at the Bike Shack has helped make it what it is today: a place for community, learning, and sharing. Thank you for all you do André, you are always such a welcomed presence!
