& Makerspace

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. It is always open during Library Hours.  During Staffed Hours @ The Makerspace, there is trained staff available to help you with your projects. Some of our equipment requires staff to be present. Check out our equipment list in the menu on the right to see what we have available. You can reserve the Cricut and digitization equipment. If you have questions about our Makerspace, please email us at createandmake@portagelibrary.info.
