The Mobius system was created to help manage and share information about resources that the MIT community may use to make, measure, and manipulate. MIT students, faculty, staff, and community members with MIT Touchstone accounts can use the Mobius web portal to locate all of the equipment, makerspaces, and facilities in the Mobius database, check the status of equipment, and pay for materials and machine time. Facility managers can use the web portal to modify information pertaining to their facility, policies, equipment, and users.
