Welcome to the Makerspace at the Portage District Library! Our mission is to provide access to new and evolving technology to everyone, regardless of their background or experience. Our Makerspace is equipped with a range of tools and equipment, including our Creation Station computers. It is always open during Library Hours.
During Staffed Hours @ The Makerspace, we are available to help you with your projects. Check out our equipment list in the menu on the right to see what we offer. Some of our equipment requires staff to be present, so you can schedule an appointment to use those items. You can also reserve time on one of our Creation Stations to use our digitization equipment. If you have questions about our Makerspace, please email us at createandmake@portagelibrary.info.
