How to Get Started
You can get your no-cost library card from any Pikes Peak Library District location and use it to check out items.
If you are new to using the studios and equipment or are starting a new project, we recommend you set up a consultation with one of our knowledgeable staff before you make a reservation. They will be able to discuss your project with you, guide you through the steps needed to successfully achieve your goals, and go over the equipment, software, and skills you will need.
Reserve your equipment online. Patrons must check in with staff upon arrival in the studios and check out before leaving.
