About Studio 775
Studio 775, Lafayette Library's Makerspace, is a collaborative, community-driven space where users of all ages can learn to use new tech tools in creative ways. Located in the light-filled north end of the upper level, the Makerspace is a venue for workshops and independent projects.
Please note: A Lafayette Library card number and a completed online release form is required for all users prior to their first use of the space. Library cards can be issued in the Lobby on your way up to the Makerspace - leave some time on your visit to get the online form filled out!

Policies & Guidelines
All users must have their own Lafayette Library card (not an online card) to use the space, regardless of the user's age. The card number is needed to fill out the Makerspace Release, which also is required before your first use of the space and equipment. Your information will remain on file.
Once you have a card and have completed the Release form, each time you visit you will check in to the Makerspace using your Library card.
