AB  - This Engagement in Practice paper will share lessons learned from the incorporation of a community engagement project into a first year Engineering Graphics and Design class for Mechanical Engineering students. As part of their design and CAD class, students worked in teams to create a design for a Little Free Library for one of four community partners. These four partners ( (1) ______ Deaf School, (2) ____ Children's Museum, (3) ______ Pollinator Path, and (3) _____ Boys and Girls club all have specific aesthetic and user needs unique to their organization. Through client meetings, deign reviews, and exploration, student teams proposed a final solution to the clients (multiple teams were assigned to each client) and the clients chose a design that would then be built by the students.

This paper will include: (1) reflections on the challenges and opportunities presented in involving multiple community partners into a single class project, (2) student responses to the projects, and (3) partner feedback on the project.
