I live outside Washington DC, near Quantico Marine Base. We are lucky to have a robust regional library. We are at the library all the time. Our libraries offer free copy, fax, and computer service. Each month, the Central Rappahannock Regional Library ( CRRL) publishes a monthly magazine. Open the link to see a sample of resources our library has, such as the MakerLab Badges. Once you are ‘badged’ or trained, you may use the equipment, such as the 3D printer.
Show your librarian some of these resources. Your library may already have access to a Library of Things, Kanopy Kids, or student and teacher resources. Ask! More libraries are setting aside space for MakerLabs similar to the IdeaSpace. Libraries apply for grant funding to obtain equipment to open Maker Spaces. Here are funding resources for Maker Spaces. Hey! It’s all free!
