Emerging Technologies: Virtual Reality

Welcome!

Welcome to Jennings Library's guide to emerging technologies that are available in the library.

The emerging technologies collection at Jennings Library started with the Creation Station, which was a grant funded initiative focusing on 3D technology. We currently offer the VR Lounge, which includes two Oculus Quest headsets. 3D printing is currently unavailable.

How do I reserve a VR headset??

 

The basics: Jennings Library has two Meta Quest 2 VR headsets and a dedicated space to use them, the VR Lounge.

  • The VR Lounge can be reserved for a maximum of 2 hours.
  • Check in for your session at the library's information desk. You will check the headsets out from the information desk.
  • The VR headsets and equipment may only be used in the VR Lounge and cannot be taken out of the Library.

Funding Information

Funding for the Makerspace Initiative (which included 3D printing) was initially provided by the New Jersey State Library and by LibraryLinkNJ, The New Jersey Library Cooperative, whose services are funded by the New Jersey State Library, which is responsible for the coordination, promotion, and funding of the New Jersey Library Network. Funding was also made available through a College Access Challenge Grant – Aim High Academy 2014 Contract.
