The Keene Public Library is proud to be one of the 34 Maker Corps Host Sites during the Summer of 2014. The Maker Corps program was created by the Maker Education Initiative as a national commitment to connect makers like me to community-serving institutions who need qualified and motivated people to expand their capabilities. The Maker Corps program is intended to expand the capabilities of local community education institutions to help them implement new maker-oriented activities.
