Personal protective equipment (PPE) for health care workers is in critically short supply. To mitigate the ongoing crisis, some public and academic libraries are using their 3D printers to create PPE components such as face shields and N95 respirator masks that are needed on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic.



In this episode of American Libraries Live, we’ll talk with librarians who have facilitated the creation of PPE components in partnerships with local hospitals and health organizations. We’ll discuss how you can replicate some of these efforts for your community.



Panelists include:

• T. J. Ferrill, head of creative spaces, J. Willard Marriott Library, University of Utah

• Brandon Patterson, technology engagement librarian, Eccles Health Sciences Library, University of Utah

• Ab. Velasco, manager, innovation, Toronto Public Library

• Jillian Rutledge, public services manager, Waterloo (IA) Public Library
