The fundamental concepts of virtual reality and augmented reality have been around for some time now (see photo at right from the Virtual Reality Society). The new Virtual Reality service of the MSU Libraries is experiencing high demand and considerable interest at MSU and beyond. On March 1st Jir Shin Boey and Jan Johnson presented at the St. Louis Regional Library Network Tech Expo 2017 (includes a link to Jir Shin and Jan’s PPT).  Their presentation, Virtual Reality in the Library, introduced the basics of VR technology, training, and policies, educational applications, and both the limitations and the potential of virtual reality.  If you have not yet tried VR and are curious, email Jir Shin to make your reservation today!
