Makerspace
Building: D. H. Hill Jr. Library
Floor: First Floor, Tower
Room: 1222
The Hill Library's Makerspace is located on the first floor, offering students, staff, and faculty a hands-on space to explore the world of making. With access to 3D printers, low-fidelity electronics, sewing machines, a laser cutter, and more, there are tools and materials for every project. The Makerspace is intended for learning, experimentation, and prototyping and not for mass production or commercial use.
The Makerspace is always staffed whenever it's open, so you can drop by for expert assistance, consultations, or anything else that you might need.
First-time visitors must complete an online orientation before visiting the Makerspace.
