[Michlib-l] Makerspace panel featured at MCLS Annual Meeting, October 4

[Heather Ladiski]

Are you curious how other libraries are transforming their spaces to meet 
the changing needs of their patrons? Three Midwestern libraries have 
melded innovation and education creating distinct spaces for children, 
teens and the technologically curious.

As part of the Midwest Collaborative for Library Services' annual meeting 
on October 4 in Indianapolis Indiana there will be a panel discussion from 
managers from these three libraries who have successfully integrated a 
Third Place. Orvella Fields from Indianapolis Public Library will present 
on the "Learning Curve"; a creative space introducing children to 
technology. Joining the panel will be Steve Teeri,  Conductor at the 
Detroit Public Libraries’ “HYPE” Teen Makerspace. Completing the panel 
will be CJ Lynce, Manager at the Cleveland Public Library’s “TechCentral”; 
an innovative technology and learning center.
