Minutes:

- Josh is getting onboarded with volunteering at the library and doing open hours.
  - Roland mentions the Library has a 3D printer that could use some TLC, and that they have a resin printer needing setup.  Josh could help out with that.
- Julie has seen some attendance to the sewing workshop, though not the easiest time for people, being in the morning.
- Josh was interested in setting up some kind of site for tool checkout, though Julie mentions there is some existing activity towards this at the library.
- Josh was curious about the history of the Makerspace; people filled in the details on the past, and what to hope to build at the Library.
- Crista passed along a potential lower-cost easier-to-use laser cutter:
  - Muse 3D Autofocus 20"x12" Desktop CO2 Laser
  - Sounds promising. Cuts many different things. Can't cut metal but can etch it.
- Bill went to a hackathon/event at https://circuitlaunch.com/
