The renovation of Countway Library allowed for the creation of a Makerspace on our first floor and an audiovisual recording room on L1. These innovative and collaborative spaces house an Anatomage Table, a 3D printer, audiovisual recording equipment, and workspace for a range of academic and personal projects. These shared spaces and machines are available for use by appointment to Harvard affiliates only; please fill out the corresponding request form below and a member of the Publishing & Data Services team will contact you to discuss your project.
Anatomage Table
The Anatomage Table allows for life-size rendering of human anatomy structures that can be rotated, manipulated, categorized, and "dissected" digitally. It includes full digital representations of several human subjects, as well as case studies of many anatomical abnormalities to allow students to see, for example, MRI images of a healthy and a diseased or deformed organ or structure. Instructors can also create modules and quizzes which students can interact with while working with the digital anatomy scans.
3D Printer
Countway now has a Dremel 3d45 3D printer available for academic projects upon request. We are also happy to work with you to integrate the 3D printer and other equipment into your curriculum. To request use of the 3D printer or to discuss your particular project, please fill out the form below and a member of our team will work with you to help coordinate and realize your 3D print project.
Due to the limited capacity of staff and equipment, the Library can only accommodate single, one-off print requests. Large scale, high resolution, or bulk printing requests will not be accepted. Remember, this is a shared resource, so be mindful of the print time and quantity requested.
Audio and Video Recording Studio
Countway offers a growing collection of audiovisual recording equipment for use in the Library upon request (the equipment cannot be removed from the L1 recording studio). The Recording Studio is reserved on a first come, first served basis. To book a time to use the equipment, please fill out the consultation form below.
