Empowering Creativity: Exploring Makerspaces and Engaging STEM Programming in Libraries Webinar

February 19, 2025 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

NYLI’s Director of Innovation & Engagement, Ellyssa Valenti Kroski will be presenting the following webinar for The American Library Association (ALA):

Makerspaces are creative, DIY spaces where people can gather to create, invent, and learn. In libraries they often have 3D printers, software, electronics, craft and hardware supplies and tools, and more.  Forward-thinking libraries are already building their own dedicated makerspaces and developing valuable STEM programming based on the tools and technologies found therein.  Learn all about the essential tools and technologies found in makerspaces and how you can host engaging STEM programming using tech such as Raspberry Pis, wearable electronics, virtual reality, and robotics in your library whether you have a dedicated makerspace or not!
