Our VOX are shelved and circ'd like any other book. We do charge on return. We plan to develop a bag packaging for the VOX with the VR glasses though. On Thu, Aug 17, 2023 at 12:22 PM Sarah Skinner via Michlib-l < michlib-l@mcls.org> wrote:

Hello, Library Land!

BPL is adding VOX books to our collection! We are looking at best practices for these awesome books. My cataloging gal and I were wondering if we could get your collective input on the following questions:

1. Do you use any sort of zippered bag/pouch for circulation or do they go out like any other book?

2. Do you have any sort of agreement/waiver for checkout (similar to Library of Things or tech equipment)?

3. Do you send the charger home with the patron, too, or do staff recharge them upon check in?

Thank you in advance for any information you can provide!

Kind regards, Sarah Skinner, MLIS Executive Director (she/her)
