What is a Makerspace?
Makerspaces are places where people with shared interests, especially in computing and technology, can gather to work on projects while sharing ideas, equipment, and knowledge. It’s a place for hands-on learning and creating with tools that may not otherwise be accessible to the general public.
The Troy-Miami County Public Library Maker Lab offers the community the opportunity to use equipment they would not normally have access to. The space includes a 5,000-square-foot maker space and classroom as well as multiple public meeting rooms and administrative offices for the library.
