Hi, my name is Raghav Patel, and I am the new Makerspace Specialist for the Orangeville Public Library. I am working on the exciting project of creating the new Makerspace at the Alder Street location.
We have a dedicated room for this project but need to do extensive renovations to get it ready. I am visiting other libraries and creative studios to get inspiration about design and what equipment to purchase. We will also need to work with professionals on electrical and ventilation upgrades, and to create an entranceway that connects to the library.
As this will take several months, we brought our new 3D printer to the Mill Street Library to show you a piece of the technology that the new Makerspace will offer. Please drop by to see the printer in action and start thinking about what you want to 3D print!
It's important to me that we listen to any ideas that you may have. Send me an email at [email protected], if you have any questions, or any suggestions.
I hope you are all excited to connect, discover and soar in your magical new Makerspace. We will be sure to share news with you as this exciting project progresses.
The 3D printer was purchased with generous support from Commonwell Mutual Insurance Group’s L.E.A.F (Learning and Engagement Accelerator Fund) initiative.
