The creation of digital content is increasingly expected in
higher education for both students and faculty, but campus
facilities supporting this work are often inaccessible to the
community. By implementing digital media labs—spaces that
house the technology to create digital content—academic
libraries can position themselves to meet this need for their
patrons. This article presents a case study of implementing a
digital media lab at a mid-sized regional comprehensive university,
the planning that went into it, the lessons learned,
and how the experiences can inform other academic libraries
interested in implementing a similar service.
