HomeLending Library

Online Library

While the WAWA print edition library is tremendous, we have our own publications and a growing library of handouts from the many demonstrators. We'll gather them here for members.

WAWA Intro to Woodturning Manual

Demonstrator Handouts

Lending library.

Wilmington Area Woodturners Association has assembled a remarkable library of general and specialized books and DVDs on woodturning and related skills. Many of these items are now out of print and the information is not found online. Borrowing from the WAWA Library is another benefit of membership.

We are currently re-sorting and categorizing our library and working toward an online reservation/request system. Check back for updates.
