Makers of Midland
Midland Public Library is developing a makerspace to offer everyone in our community the opportunity to discover and share their creative passions, and explore the intersection between their creativity and new technologies. This investment will make skills, tools, and equipment that are out of reach for individuals available to the whole community, and allow us to gather and learn together.
If you’re a business owner, entrepreneur, or maker and would be willing to offer insight into relevant programs, materials and tools for the makerspace, or you’re interested in joining our Makerspace Advisory Group, please contact Faith for more information (705-526-4216 ext. 3305, fshergold@midlandlibrary.com). We want to hear from you!
Book Club
Join our book club, ‘Between the Covers’, and meet other friendly readers for engaging conversation on each month’s book of choice. All books are provided by the Library.
Books may be from various genres, and members are encouraged to nominate future selections.
Tech Help
Every Wednesday – 1-on-1 Tutorials
Figuring out a new device? Giving social media a try? If you’ve got a question about today’s technology or are looking for a little guidance, then we’re here to help!
