We could bring it to other campuses of our institution that do not have makerspaces. 4 out of 7 do not have dedicated spaces.

At my institution, we have craft-type themed MakerSpace "kits" that are intended for classroom use. They're cataloged and available for check out, mostly by faculty. Everything needed for a variety of crafts of one kind are packed up into a rolling tote that can easily be taken into the classroom. There's a painting & air-dry clay kit, a hand-sewing kit, jewelry-making, etc. The instructor gets a checklist to ensure all items come back and directions on cleaning specific items and what other materials they need to supply.

How has your campus's Risk Management office reacted to the idea of a mobile makerspace?

How often do you have pop-ups? Do you offer activities? Do you have demonstrations?

# data[].attributes.body
I think for my institution, a pop-up makerspace would be most beneficial as a way to connect our local community to campus resources (visiting high schools, middle schools, community centers, etc).

Cons: Not all makerspace elements are particularly mobile. I could see a tension between student-focused events, incorporation into classroom making, and visitors to campus.

Pros: It might help get people interested in our in-person Makerspace who don't know about it or who have been intimidated by the high-tech equipment.

It might allow us to be more visible to across a broader swath of campus. However, it would be challenging to manage with our current staffing levels.

We could add making to other library outreach events (e.g. tabling at orientation events for incoming first year or transfer students)

We collect a lot of different people and perspectives from across disciplines. Our material cost structure helps remove finances as a barrier to entry.

They definitely aid in the effort to democratize maker tech and skills.

The joy of the students in creating things.

Balancing time on pop-up events against time spent maintaining the in-place library makerspace (and all the non-makerspace parts of my job)

# data[].attributes.body
It demonstrates that ALL students are makers

We might struggle with making sure it reached a broad enough audience depending on the progenitor, but it would certainly be interdisciplinary.

Scrap material and free access to tools makes it super accessible

People are surprised and excited to discover that we are here - we could go to where they are. :)

The space was designed with flexibility and ad hoc groups in mind.
