A Newsletter for UMW Faculty and Staff
ThinkLab
Beginning Monday, September 8, the ThinkLab in Simpson Library will be open from 5 to 9 p.m. for an Open Hack night. Faculty, staff, and students are encouraged to stop by to explore 3-D design and printing, tinker with e-textiles, or use any of the tools available in the lab. Bring your projects and your curiosity. Share what you know and learn from each other.
University Librarian Rosemary Arneson and Central Rappahannock Regional Library Librarian Joy McIntire presented a session titled “Made in the Library” at the Virginia Library Association Annual Conference in Williamsburg. Arneson described the UMW ThinkLab and the work that faculty and students are doing there, and McIntire discussed the collaborations the CRRL librarians are doing with George Meadows in the College of Education. The program included demonstrations of e-textiles, Cubelits, wind tunnels, and firing the rocket launcher.
