HTC Vive has recently announced the Vive Libraries Program, which will start bringing VR to over 100 libraries in California and Nevada. Vive has donated 100 Vive headsets to public libraries across the state bringing VR to more people.
“This generous contribution by Vive is helping bring a virtual world of adventure and learning to communities across California. As more virtual reality stations take root across our library system, we are seeing positive learning impacts and visitors that are genuinely excited about technology and education.”
— Greg Lucas, California State Librarian
On the content side, Vive Studios has developed over 35 VR titles on the educational and experimental front, which will be available on the Viveport platform. This is a generous step in the right direction for individuals that don’t have access to premium VR content and great overall for libraries to adapt moving forward. Hopefully this can reach every state on the national level but it’s a good start. Below are titles that will be available in the Vive Libraries Program including a video.
