I prototyped the infrastructure of Bill Brown Creative Workshop in Notion, then built the live site in MS SharePoint (why? see the blog). It's been in use since August 2024. This template removes direct references, so you can add your own names and locations.

Floor plan and equipment locations can be helpful for newbies & non regulars. See where specific tools and machines are situated throughout the building. Help find the way.
Creatives, particularly those new to an environment may not always feel up to asking lots of questions.

How can members, visitors, whomever find out what’s happening, who’s in charge of what, and are when events or training sessions taking place? What are the rules, available tools, and how can I join or participate? Also, is everything running smoothly, or should I wait before coming?

Laws and legal documents vary by country, organisation, and equipment type. Templates are often available on government and council/municipal websites. Make sure what you find online is relevant and up to date, as the responsibility rests with you. I'll continue to add more here over time.
And said again, but in legal language.
Regulatory requirements and documentation protocols vary across jurisdictions, organisations, and equipment categories. Government and municipal websites typically offer standardised templates for reference. Please ensure that any resources you utilise are applicable to your specific context and are current, as compliance ultimately falls under your responsibility.
