Volunteering in the Libraries

Makerspace volunteer - 3D printing, sewing/embroidery, papercrafts and more

The University Libraries have created two new university-wide Makerspaces - Breakerspace and Bio-Medical Library Makerspace - and we are looking for volunteers to welcome and support users in the spaces and help grow the spaces and chart their future. Volunteers do not need any previous experience or skills with making equipment, just an interest in making stuff and helping others. Gain experience with using emerging technologies, team building, leadership, and instruction that you can then demonstrate on graduate school or job applications. Come and meet new students from across campus, work on your own course work, and have fun! Apply now for volunteer positions!
