The Library Makers community is for people who run services and/or programs for library staff, past or current, or individuals who work with libraries, who have an interest in makerspaces and maker programming. Our community is inclusive, diverse and filled with hope and positive energy! Whether you are just starting out in the world of making or you have been at it for years, you are in a small library or big, you have a dedicated makerspace, a maker cart, or just maker programs, this is the place to collaborate and connect.
To keep Library Makers members engaged and to continue to bring value to LM, we need help from our members. We are looking for volunteers to provide leadership (in big ways and small) to keep LM growing and evolving as an integral part of the maker movement.
What’s in it for you? LM leaders say that they:
- Gain skill professionally (presenting at conferences, being tied to a nationally recognized initiative, learning new skills)
- Appreciate the time spent collaborating with colleagues across the country at various types of libraries (rural, urban, university-based, etc.)
- Love having their input matter and show up in how things change within the community that can affect the larger library field
- Community building
- Sustainability
- Leadership Team
- Events & Programming
