This article is a great starter kit for considering makerspaces in the library. There are lists of suggested “Cool Stuff to Outfit Your Makerspace” and resources (websites, books, podcasts, etc.).

“Many libraries across the US have developed makerspaces—places to create, build, and craft—and they are experiencing increased visits and demand as a result. For public libraries, they are places to promote community engagement. For academic libraries, they are places where students and faculty feel welcome to do classwork and research.”
