Repair Café at the Ukiah Branch Library on Canva

A friend of mine recently introduced me to the concept of Repair Cafes because there is a new one starting in a neighboring county. When I share this idea with the programming librarian technician at the library where I work, she said has always wanted to do a Repair Café! I used this project as on opportunity to research Repair Cafés and imagine how we could bring one to our library!  One of my favorite current programs at our library is our Makerspaces and this seems like a beautiful way to expand the Makerspaces into community events that help meet financial & social needs as well as promoting sustainability.
