Melding universities' strategic goals with libraries' teaching and learning mission, the academic library makerspace can be a powerful catalyst for information literacy, offering faculty partners a place for interdisciplinary, experiential learning. If you're pondering what it takes to get your makerspace into the curriculum, this volume's relatable, first-hand accounts from librarians, makerspace staff, and faculty partners will give you the confidence to make the leap. Contributors, drawn from the IMLS-funded Maker Literacies project, describe pilots and assessment for a variety of demographics, course subjects, and makerspace equipment. Guided by their experiences, you'll be ready to fully partner with faculty through the course integration and assessment process. Inside, you'll learn

  • why academic librarians are uniquely situated to be leaders in the realm of makerspaces and makerspace literacy;
  • how the ACRL Framework informs maker competencies;
  • methods for using competencies and assessment in designing course assignments;
  • 5 steps for guiding faculty in creating assignments for makerspaces;
  • advice on developing a new staffing and service model to handle course-wide use of the makerspace;
  • steps for taking students through concept, design, prototype, and final product in a project management course;
  • how an ethical perspective engaged a women's history course toward the "In Her Shoes" project;
  • pedagogical strategies for integrating the makerspace into fine arts classes; and
  • ways to showcase makerspace outputs to generate excitement around campus.
