MAKERSPACES IN THE MAKING
Foster City Library
We are pleased to be working with Brad Cox, Architect, Inc., the City of Foster City, and our Foster City Library staff to renovate the teen room into a Makerspace for the Foster City community that is a dedicated, flexible workspace with the latest technology, equipment, and tools - to ignite their imagination to explore.
We are pleased to be working with Mark Schatz (the architect for Millbrae Library) from ELS Urban and Design Architecture, the City of Millbrae, and our Millbrae Library staff to transition the former computer lab into an exciting new Makerspace. In addition to including the equipment and tools found at all our Makerspaces, Millbrae library will offer more digital art, tech instruction, and hands-on experiences for seniors.
MAKERS ON THE MOVE

We are excited that our first zero-emission, all-electric Makermobile will arrive in San Mateo County within the year. Working closely with our partners Phoenix Motorcars and San Mateo County, the Makermobile will bring traveling maker programs to our library branches that don't have physical makerspaces and throughout the county to support community activities.
The Makermobile will have 3 movable carts – a program cart, a tool cart, and an equipment cart. Equipment will include a Glowforge Pro laser cutter, laptops, iPads, a 3D printer and more!
A diverse array of maker activities will be available to encourage making, ignite a growth mindset through trial and error processes, create transformative experiences, and teach timeless skills like problem-solving, critical thinking, design thinking, creativity, and curiosity.
