Beginning March 1, 2026, McAllen Public Library will no longer accept public 3D print file submissions. Our 3D printing technology will now be dedicated to library led programming, workshops, and STEM learning experiences. Keep an eye out for upcoming opportunities to explore 3D printing through future library programs.

For decades, the Rio Grande Valley has seen rapid growth and urbanization🏙- Houses, roads, stores, sidewalks. Like every ecosystem, our growing cities need balance. This Stem Stops we take a closer look at the infrastructure that keeps urban ecosystems balanced and healthy- Native Trees! 🌳 #STEM #southtexastrees #urbanecosystems #plantnative #quintamazatlan
