Makerspace and gaming room for Lakeside Library
The Lakeside Library recently got some groundbreaking additions.
MEYERTON. -Midvaal Local Municipality has introduced a groundbreaking addition to its Lakeside Library: a new Makerspace and Gaming Rooms.
Makerspaces play a crucial role in communities, fostering creativity, innovation, and collaboration.
This space will allow users to immerse themselves in a world of possibilities, including 3D printing, coding, creative arts, project modelling, and robotics.
The gaming rooms, beyond serving as spaces for entertainment and socialisation, also promote digital literacy skills, enhance the concentration of learners, and encourage interaction among peers.
The maker space and gaming rooms grant communities access to cutting-edge technology that would ordinarily be inaccessible in these communities.
By offering these amenities within public libraries, Midvaal says it is creating safe spaces for exploration and discovery.
Midvaal says that these exciting additions ensure that municipal libraries remain relevant in the 21st century and continue to provide services aligned with the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
The administration says it is committed to addressing challenges through innovation, creativity, and staying ahead of the curve.
