Editor's Notes
- John Harvey – Director of the Gardner-Harvey Library located on the Middletown, OH campus of Miami University and during October and November he conducted a web-based survey about makerspaces in libraries. Burke solicited for respondents from 12 electronic discussion lists, Twitter, and one Facebook group. 41% of the respondents currently provide makerspaces in their libraries (or provide maker activities through their libraries) 36% of the respondents are planning to start makerspaces in the near future 24% of respondents are not currently providing makerspaces nor are planning to do so The following responses all come from the 109 librarians who currently provide makerspaces or who plan to soon start a makerspace.
- Is defined as a place for creation, collaboration, innovation and entrepreneurship. Now in its second year, the MakerSpace is expanding, thanks to a generous grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), the federal agency that is the main source of support for libraries and museums nationwide. Four 3D Printers – can book a time or observe. Program of events, including on weekends.
- Bubbler - “Whether offering the basics of animation, screen printing, music, clothing design, dance, or painting (to name a few), the Bubbler’s hands-on pop-up workshops introduces participants to a variety of local experts who share their talents and physical resources. Our deep list of partners keeps the Bubbler experience current and dynamic, offering a wide range of lectures, demonstrations, performances, and make-and-take workshops in all nine library branches and at partner locations around the city.” FOR 2013-2014 THE BUBBLER PROGRAM IS SUPPORTED IN PART BY AN AWARD FROM THE NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE ARTS ART WORKS. The Media Lab at Central Library is a free space to learn and use: Stop motion animation w/ iPad stations 3D world design w/ Maya software Green screen video w/ Premiere Audio design w/ Pro Tools Graphic design w/ Photoshop View the calendar for workshop and open labs times.
- Technology, Engineering, & the Arts. It is a mini-makerspace, a learning lab, & an artist studio designed for children in grades 3 to 6. The TEA Club is a program that runs throughout the entire school year & encourages children to learn & strengthen STEAM-based skills (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Math). TEA Club members can earn badges in skills like Circuitry, Robotics, Coding, Graphic Design, & more. To earn a badge, a TEA Club member must have 10 points in a particular skill. The DML's purpose is to give the Darien community access to high quality equipment for their digital projects. The room and equipment is reserved for special projects instead of general computing which is available in the Power Library. The lab was made possible thanks to the Friends of the Library and a reverse auction held at the 2012 spring's Imagination Gala.
- Innovation Lab Made possible with a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) The Library's Maker Lab offers the public an introduction to technology and equipment which are enabling new forms of personal manufacturing and business opportunities. The Lab will offer access to a variety of design software such as Trimble Sketchup, Inkscape, Meshlab, Makercam and equipment including three 3D Printers, two laser cutters, as well as a milling machine and vinyl cutter. YOU Media teen learning space which is currently located at five Chicago Public Library locations. Chicago Public Library librarians and Digital Youth Network mentors lead workshops to help teens build their skills and create digital projects – from songs to videos to photography to podcasts. Teens learn how to use a variety of technology and digital equipment, including still and video cameras, drawing tablets, and video and photo editing software. YOUmedia at the Harold Washington Library also provides an in-house recording studio featuring keyboards, turntables, and a mixing board.
- As an interdisciplinary service facility, the UM3D Lab provides the entire University of Michigan community access to high-end technologies and professional expertise in the general areas of 3D simulation, digital fabrication, education, visualization, motion capture, modeling, animation, and application development. The UM3D Lab strives to capture and encourage the creative spirit by providing the tools, expertise, and collaborative opportunities needed to support cutting edge research, academic initiatives, and innovative uses of technology in an open and inviting environment. We have an open door policy and are open from 9am-6pm, Monday-Friday.
