High-Tech 'Hackerspaces' in Libraries - the Maker Station
Sunday, 11 December 2011
There's a 50-foot trailer in the parking lot of the Allen County Public Library in Fort Wayne, IN.
Inside you will find what Library director Jeff Krull says is "a resource to the community that individuals would not be able to have access to on their own."
He's right on the money! In this trailer he is walking the talk - demonstrating his philosophy about today's libraries.
Mr. Krull shows his community what he believes...that a "library as not being in the book business, but being in the learning business and the exploration business and the expand-your-mind business."
We love this! Check out just what is inside this trailer - here's the whole article from NPR, 11 December 2011 audio of interview included.
