Many thanks for the suggestion. OMSI was also awarded the grant, and I will be involved in its implementation. I didn't incorporate Maker Spaces because they are the subject of another proposal. Congratulations on the award.

Best,
Kristin

You know that IMLS is about to announce the winners of the grant called "Learnng Labs" they did in conjunction with the MacArthur Foundation?  You certainly have a broad enough definition of learning labs, but you might want to add hacker spaces and making spaces, which is what IMLS was soliciting in this RFP, if I recall correctly.
