About Maker Kits

Ever wanted to take the Makerspace home with you? Now you can! The Maker Kits allow you to check out certain maker equipment from the Makerspace for up to one week. 

You can check the status of a kit HERE. Keep in mind, however, that we cannot guarantee a kit will be available at any given times, and we're not able to place holds or reserves on maker kits.
