Igniting Young Minds In "Spark Space"

Homework help, computer lab, play place and more.  Those are among the functions of the new Spark Space opening at the Jackson County Library branch in Central Point. 

It's a STEM kind of place (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics), but also gives teens and tweens a place to be creative with computers, blogging and coding and more.  Two guests join us: Amy Drake from the Jackson County Library Foundation, and Ashland Branch Library Manager Kristin Anderson.
