Hello ARLISians, 

We are very fortunate that one of our teaching faculty has a grant to fund a few 360 cameras, and 30 VR headsets. Her home department will be creating content for the students to view on the headsets. 

The permanent home for the cameras and headsets will be the library. The headsets will be treated as reserve items, but the cameras will have to leave the library (and the land during our summer sea term). We currently don’t circulate any type of electronic device (no laptops, tablets, etc), so we don’t have a baseline for how to handle the potential risk for damage to electronics.  

Does your library have VR headsets, 360 cameras, DSLR’s, etc. and if so, what are your policies and procedures for their circulation? Late fees, replacement fees, how to know if a student knows how to work the equipment in advance, etc.

Thanks in advance for your insights! 

Best,

Jill Kehoe
