Ever have trouble coming up with ideas? Do you have an idea, but you aren’t sure how to make it a reality? We have a treat in store for you. We chatted with Kerry Harmer, Maker Specialist at the Mount Royal University Library Maker Studio, about ideation. Ideation is the process behind brainstorming and bringing ideas to life. Ideation is central to the making.

We hope you’re inspired to reach out to Kerry and the Maker Studio team in the Fall. As we shift back to on-campus work and leave remote work behind, this podcast will take a hiatus. It has been a pleasure bringing your stories of makers and mavericks here at the Library. What would you like to see on this podcast? Feel free to reach out!

Check out the audio spaces at the Library and create your own podcast in September!
