Tom traces the roots of community sharing infrastructure from the first tool libraries of the 1970s through 2,000+ Libraries of Things operating worldwide today, and examines mutual aid as a proven economic model — not charity. With the new Library of Things Toolkit launching March 19 at the Repair & Share Summit, this episode is both a conversation about economic paradigm change and a practical on-ramp for anyone ready to start building the commons in their own community.Tom's Work & Shareable:Shareable.netLibrary of Things Toolkit — new edition live March 19Sharing Cities: Activating the Urban Commons — free downloadThe Response podcast & documentaryMutual Aid 101Navigating Conflict in Movement SpacesEmergency Battery Network ToolkitTop 50 How-To GuidesRural Power CoalitionCities@TuftsEvents:Repair & Share Summit — March 19-20Referenced:Join or Die documentary — NetflixAsheville Tool Library","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/P3wg-xEkpRvkpDT15uNl06Lyxqq441lxmltvmKML17Q/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8xODll/MmJhYWIwMGZhNGRl/ODI0NjVlMDg2YjE0/ZDI0My5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
