Posted December 7, 2023 in Carrier Renovation News, Educational Technology News, JMU Libraries News, Library Futures News
3SPACE has moved from Carrier Library to Lakeview Hall room 1102, and it is now available to faculty to request for their courses.
What is it? 3SPACE is the first general-education college 3D printing classroom in the U.S. It offers 3D printing access and training to people of all experience levels, primarily via JMU’s General Education courses.
Some of the General Education courses that have been taught in 3SPACE include:
- LTLE: 3D Printing Real World Solutions
- SMAD: Storytelling through 3D prototyping
- OT: Assistive Technology
- UNST: 3D Printing in Medicine
- LED: Writing Instruction Pk-6

What are the differences between 3SPACE, The Makery, and X-Labs?
- While X-Labs is also located in Lakeview, it is not the same as 3SPACE and not part of the Libraries.
- The Makery is a makerspace located in Rose Library (and soon to have a location in Carrier Library) that offers many other technologies and workshops in addition to 3D printing.
- 3SPACE is a 3D printing classroom that offers 3D printing access and training for all experience levels.
