[Ipg-smz] FYI, (my) "3D Printers Could Be Coming to a Library Near You" article

[Curtis Franklin]

This is outstanding! Our Orange County (FL) library has the Melrose Center, which includes a full maker space with 3-D printers, laser cutters, and plenty of help for those who need it. I’m convinced that libraries are becoming more, not less, valuable in the digital era.
