<div dir="ltr">I agree with call it LIBRARY...people need to be taught to redefine the meaning of the word "library" because we are ever-evolving (and it is not practical to re-do our name with every trend that comes along)!

We need your help!<br>
<br>
My school is under construction, and I’m blessed to have a new construction space for this upcoming school year that will embrace the future ready model. Part of the remodel will include a dedicated Maker space room attached to the library. <br>
<br>
Our space is called Learning Commons, but we are looking for a name for our related arts class that equally embraces the information literacy components as well as the maker space side. Anything we’ve found or come up with is one sided. <br>
<br>
Thanks in advanced for your suggestions.. <br>
