Makerspace
Makerspace is a place where trained library users can try out new technologies, model their visions, prototype small promotional items and repair their equipment (e.g. sew up a torn pocket). The workshop equipment is designed to meet the needs of the study programmes and courses taught at ECON MUNI, especially in the areas of marketing, management and urban planning. The makerspace is equipped with 3D-printers, a cutting plotter, a laser engraver and a button maker. There are also materials for creative work such as papers, foils, crayons, scissors, modelling wire and small tools.
