Abstract
The Foundry is an interdisciplinary makerspace located in the Fine Arts Library (FAL) branch of the University of Texas Library (UTL) System. It had a soft opening in the fall of 2016. The space was created in partnership with the College of Fine Arts with a primary goal of making the creative process and creative practice accessible to any UT student, staff, or faculty member. To date, The Foundry is the only makerspace on campus that is open to any student, staff, or faculty member irrespective of departmental affiliation.
