Virtual reality is new and improved for library programs this year! We have just purchased 2 new Oculus Meta virtual reality headsets to loan to libraries.
The Oculus Meta Quest 2 is a new VR headset that allows users to play, work out, explore, and learn in a virtual world. The kit includes the headset, controllers and everything else you need. A TV/projector is not included or required, however it does allow everyone in the room to watch and enjoy.
There are 2 different VR kits to choose from: The Oculus Meta Quest 2 or the PlayStation 4. They both can play virtual reality games and videos, however they are a little different. They also have some different games, please check website for current list of games.
Oculus doesn't require a TV or projector (although one can be used so everyone in the room can watch, is easier to set up, and has less cables and more freedom of space.
PlayStation 4 requires a TV or projector, has lots of cables, but can be used just as a gaming console with disc games.
Reservations will be handled on a first-come, first-serve basis and will be confirmed with an email from myself. The kits can be checked out for up to 10 days, but only one kit at a time.
This equipment is intended for in-library use only and only for reservations by library staff members.
If you have any questions, you can leave them in the reservation form or send me an email at [email protected].
Check availability and reserve the kits here.
