The FAB101 project will host Fab:UNIverse 2019 at the Einstein Center Digital Future (ECDF) on November 6, 2019. The establishment and operation of publicly accessible Fab Labs, (Maker-)Spaces and similar laboratories in the university context poses a whole range of challenges. Since 2017, an increasing number of representatives of such places have been exchanging information at the annual event Fab:UNIverse. Also in 2019, the organizers want to offer the opportunity for networking and exchange of university (Fab) labs and this time present the results of the research project FAB101 in the form of a handbook for academic maker spaces and put them up for discussion.
