Life Skills: DIY & Repair

All Manitoba libraries, and some BC Libraries, have access to the following:

Home Improvement Reference Centre
Looking to install a new door, fix a leaky faucet, or spruce up your garden? You’ve come to
the right place! The online tool provides free access to a database containing thousands of articles from leading home improvement magazines and reference books, plus a collection of home repair images not found anywhere else online. Quickly find the information you need by conducting keyword searches or browsing projects from A-to-Z or by category

Small Engine Repair Reference Center
Clymer manuals containing thousands of maintenance and repair instructions for hundreds of small engine machines. Routine maintenance and more extensive repairs for motorcycles, ATVs, personal water craft, snowmobiles, lawn mowers, tractors, snow blowers, generators, and more are covered.
