The Technology Nest, in the Athens campus library, is a lab and development space with software and equipment supporting 3D printing, multimedia design, mobile and game development, video production, coding/programming, electronics, and other technology. The “Nest” provides current students, faculty, and staff a safe space to learn and explore these technologies. The libraries on Elbert and Walton campuses also have 3D printers and other technology.
