Library to Unveil “STEAM Engines”


Tompkins County Public Library will celebrate Curiosity Day at TCPL with the Thursday, October 10 unveiling of its STEAM Engine maker carts.

Young patrons and families will be able to build science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics skills through hands-on activities and exploration of the tools available on the carts.

The STEAM engines will be available for self-guided patron use during regular library hours, however, library staff will offer two demonstrations of featured maker activities during Curiosity Day.  Demonstrations will be held at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. in the Youth Services Department.

For more information, contact Sarah O’Shea at soshea@tcpl.org or (607) 272-4557 extension 255.

Funding for this initiative was made possible by the Tompkins County Public Library Foundation with support from the Community Foundation of Tompkins County’s Myrtle Dee Nash Fund.
