KMDI Makerspace

Learn, interact, and create with technology!

Located in the 7th floor of Robarts Library, at the University of Toronto’s St. George campus, the KMDI Makerspace provides faculty and students from across the Tri-Campus with a creative space where they can explore different technologies, be creative, and make things within a collaborative and safe environment. At the KMDI Makerspace, UofT community can experiment with variety of equipment. The goal of the KMDI Makerspace is to foster critical relationships between technology, media and society at large, all with the hope of creating and making things that improve the lives and enjoyment of others.

Open Hours: Wednesdays 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM

Come for a  tour anytime during the open hours, no appointment required. 

Interested in using the equipment or have a project in mind? Please make an appointment:

On the Wednesday you would like to visit, email makerspace.kmdi@utoronto.ca   and include:

  • the estimated timeslot of your visit (e.g. 1:00 – 2:30 pm)
  • the equipment you would like to use
  • brief description of your project and your skill level so we can assess the amount of assistance you will
    require and if your project is feasible for our space.

We don’t expect a high volume of visitors at the same time, so a simple email the day of your visit will let us know to look forward to seeing you at the Makerspace. We also do this to minimize no-shows from appointments made too far in advance.

Find us: When it’s time for your visit, go to Robarts Library, 7th floor, room RL7020. Remember to bring your T-card to enter Robarts. Once you arrive at KMDI, please ring the doorbell to be let in.
