The Guild has a good library that includes the latest international magazines and many books and manuals on How To! A bi-monthly magazine is published and distributed fee to financial members. The guild also published a book entitled "From Fleece to Fashion", copies of which can be obtained from the Guild.

The Yarn Store:
The yarn store stocks fleece, commercially prepared wool and wool mix tops, dyes, weaving yarns and sundry other items.

The Equipment store:
The Guild stocks a wide range of equipment for hire, including spinning wheels, looms and warping boards.
