A campus resource known for its limitless potential is now home to a flurry of activity in the fight against COVID-19. The I-Create Lab, a hands-on, multipurpose makerspace in the Mary and Jeff Bell Library where users invent, collaborate, design, and create, is utilizing its laser cutting technology to make disposable face shields for health care professionals.
