    Dear all, 
    The National Forum to Connect and Advance Library Makerspaces project-funded by an IMLS National Leadership Grant-has gathered extensive input from practitioners, researchers, and partners nationwide. We're now pleased to share the Public Feedback Edition of our final report, which highlights key findings from national listening sessions on the strategic direction and future of library makerspaces.
    The draft report and feedback form are available at the following link:
    The feedback form will be open from early November through December 7, 2025. The final report will be released in January 2026, followed by a concluding webinar.
    We value your perspective-your feedback will help strengthen and refine this national report. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts! 
    Best, 
    The Library Makerspaces National Forum Team
