“Augmented reality (AR) is a term for a live direct or an indirect view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented by computer-generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data. It is related to a more general concept called mediated reality, in which a view of reality is modified (possibly even diminished rather than augmented) by a computer. As a result, the technology functions by enhancing one’s current perception of reality. By contrast, virtual reality replaces the real world with a simulated one.”

Wikipedia, August 2, 2011

OED, draft edition, December 2005

“Augmented reality n. the use of technology which allows the perception of the physical world to be enhanced or modified by computer-generated stimuli perceived with the aid of special equipment; reality as perceived in this way.”

Page 9: QR Codes,  Location Based Services,  & Augmented Reality  for Libraries

lauren’s take on it

“Augmented reality is the overlay of digital information on the physical world.”

a physical thing with addition information embedded in it,

app that merges web-based information with real life,

Changes how people can access information

Page 17: QR Codes,  Location Based Services,  & Augmented Reality  for Libraries

Device evolution impacts how we access information.

Page 18: QR Codes,  Location Based Services,  & Augmented Reality  for Libraries

The most recent case in point: the iPhone

Page 19: QR Codes,  Location Based Services,  & Augmented Reality  for Libraries

Google changed how we interacted with the web.

Page 20: QR Codes,  Location Based Services,  & Augmented Reality  for Libraries

Netflix changed how we accessed movies.

Page 21: QR Codes,  Location Based Services,  & Augmented Reality  for Libraries

The Kindle changed how we read books.

Information Literacy

Page 24: QR Codes,  Location Based Services,  & Augmented Reality  for Libraries

Association of College and Research Libraries

“Information Literacy is the set of skills needed to find, retrieve, analyze, and use information.”

Association of College and Research Libraries

“Information Literacy is the set of skills needed to find, retrieve, analyze, and use information.”

Page 27: QR Codes,  Location Based Services,  & Augmented Reality  for Libraries

“Ultimately, information literate people are those who have learned how to learn. They know how to learn because they know how knowledge is organized, how to find information, and how to use information in such a way that others can learn from them. They are people prepared for lifelong learning, because they can always find the information needed for any task or decision at hand.”

American Library Association Presidential Committee on Information Literacy, January 10, 1989
