Augmented Reality in the children’s library

Abstract

“Island of the Bibliobits” is a short game, in which students aged 7-9 are tasked with rescuing the Bibliobits. The Bibliobits are small digital friends of the library who got lost in the children’s library. Each Bibliobit is found at its favorite genre of library material: Fantasy books, comics, movies, board games etc. The Bibliobits are revealed through augmented reality, and the students have to bring them back to their island. This fun quest gives the students an engaging introduction to the library.
