Learn how to use Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) to STEAM up your library programs, intrigue your patrons, market your collection and provide your patrons with access to the technology resources of the future. VR and AR can enhance programming for all ages, let your patrons experience a whole new world of learning, and even help them locate the materials they need. Learn how to make story time pop, when kids create their own interactive 3D virtual dragon. Create new ways for patrons to browse or wayfind using AR signage and information. Let your patrons explore, create, and learn in a virtual world with AR apps, HTC Vive and other VR systems. This session will cover what is possible now and how this new technology could transform libraries in the future.
