Virtual reality provides opportunities for experiential learning and facilitating connections between people, places, and technology. Hear about Dakota County Library’s journey from proposal to program as we explored virtual reality in the library. Discuss a variety of considerations in model types, maintenance, and sharing logistics; then learn about different practical uses for VR in programs and outreach. Try some different VR experiences yourself; from interactive puzzle games and building a VR world, to photography and library tours.
