This is Librarian – Young Adult Services Taaren Samuelson’s second Fixit Clinic at this library (their inaugural Fixit Clinic was in mid-April.)

If you’ve got friends who you think might make good Fixit Coaches please encourage them to sign up too or just show up and observe.

Hope you can make it, -Peter

Fixit Coaches will be training in residence at the Springstowne Library and available for consultation on your broken items.

Celebrating repair by conveying basic troubleshooting skills, Fixit Clinics are do-it-together hands-on STEM-oriented fix-n-learn community-based exploration and discovery workshops staffed by volunteer Fixit Coaches who generously share their time, tools and expertise to consult with you on the disassembly, troubleshooting, and repair of your item.
 
So bring your broken, non-functioning things -- electronics, appliances, computers, toys, sewing machines, bicycles, fabric items, etc.-- for assessment, disassembly, and possible repair. We'll provide workspace, specialty tools, and guidance to help you disassemble and troubleshoot your item. Whether you fix it or not, you'll learn more about how it was manufactured and how it worked, ready to share your new-found confidence and insight with your friends, neighbors, and the community at large. (Hopefully you’ll be inspired to become a Fixit Coach yourself.)
 
First-time Fixit Coaches always welcome; sign up here: http://goo.gl/kwVNlv
