Youth Services News 3 D printing

[A Library]

We are in the process of bringing a set of 3d printers into our library.
We hope that patron's will find it fun and also affordable.  Once pricing
is in place, we are waiting on the product's arrival before setting price,
we will contact the local schools and let them know that it is available so
that teachers may use it as a resource.
