Makerspace

The Library has an excellent Makerspace on the 3rd floor of the TFDL.

The Maker movement involves people who are engaged in a do-it-yourself process of reiterative, low-budget prototyping to make and share creations" (Halverson and Sheridan, 2014)

Visit the Makerspace and use some of its resources including:

  • 3D printing
  • 3D scanner
  • Carvey CNC Milling Machine
  • Cricut Vinyl Cutter
