Abstract

Stan the Tech Van is an experience on wheels belonging to Madison (OH) Public Library (MPL). It’s not just a 2022 Ram Promaster 2500 cargo van; it can hold an FDM 3D printer along with other tech on carts in the back. We chose a high roof delivery van to allow any staff member the ability to drive Stan for a program or event since it does not require a commercial driver’s license. Stan is outfitted with delivery shelving, a roof rack, and an awning package as well as a powered Gramps Aluminum Gated Commercial Van Ramp System. It’s more than a vehicle that holds enough LEGO Robotics that a staff member doesn’t have to clean out his or her car to get a classroom set out to a school. It’s a mobile makerspace that holds all types of machines that anyone can use to create all sorts of projects.
