Abstract

Makerspaces have become increasingly common in academic libraries, but libraries are not alone in their enthusiasm for the creative and innovative culture known as the maker movement. As more libraries develop makerspaces, so do other campus units and universities. This article presents a case study of the Indiana University Libraries’ makerspace initiatives and their role in a larger network of makerspaces on the IU Bloomington campus. The author synthesizes examples from several institutions to make recommendations for libraries looking to contribute to the maker culture at their institution.
