Summary/Abstract: Aim: The study presents the contributions of the makerspace regions of libraries and the Project-Based Learning (PBL) approach and analyses the studies conducted on this topic. Design: Traditional review methods were applied through descriptive research and document analysis. This study is not a literature review. Firstly, the Web of Science database was searched for keywords on the topic. The Web of Science queries were conducted in January 2025.Research limitations: As part of the study, the Web of Science database was searched for “project-based learning” and “makerspace”. Results: When searching the Web of Science for “librarianship-makerspace” and “Project-Based Learning (PBL)” as part of this study, no publications on this topic were found, even though the three topics are so close to each other. No results were also obtained when querying the three titles with “and” in the same query. This shows that the library profession has not yet reached a sufficient level of knowledge about research and project-based learning (PBL)Originality: The study found that there are no publications on PBL in the field of librarianship, especially the studies on Makerspace do not include Project-Based Learning (PBL). This is the original aspect of the study.
