[hackerspaces] Collaboration with public libraries to host/incubate new hackerspaces?

[Joshua Pritt]

I would just look online for all the libraries that currently have a
makerspace or started one until it grew large enough to get their own
space.
Then show those to your library and city council.
I would also find a lot of good examples of what makerspaces do by printing
off a few blog posts from various makerspace websites. Check out the
classes and events from ours to get started:

Is there any documentation on working with local public libraries to use
those existing ideologically similar spaces to start a hackerspace? These
types of partnerships seem like they would be naturally symbiotic and
mutually beneficial. I'd like to do this in my city, but I don't really
know what the best practices are. Some successful examples might be
helpful, if nothing else.
