Blugold Makerspace

A makerspace is a place where people come together to create. We provide tools, expertise, community, and resources to help you explore your imagination. Whether you want to build your own remote control car, construct a papier mache sculpture, or create a unique Halloween costume, the McIntyre Library Makerspace is here to help you. The Makerspace is available to the entire campus community: students, faculty, and staff.

Would you like a tour? Need some help on a project? Want to use this resource with your class? Just want to talk to one of the staff?

Are you interested in our makerspace and receiving email updates on its status? Do you have items you would like to donate to the makerspace? We welcome community support in the form of arts/crafting supplies, gently used tools/equipment, and other items that can be re-purposed to broaden our supplies and lessen waste in the local community.

If you answered yes to any of these questions, please use the form at the bottom of the page to contact the Blugold Makerspace staff.
