Abstract—Virtual and augmented reality technologies provide access to learning materials and improve the organization of a modern library’s media space. This article aims to identify the significance and role of virtual and augmented reality technologies in the modern library's media space organization. The research uses a university library case study methodology to empirically investigate virtual and augmented reality technologies. Virtual and augmented reality technologies provide research and improve learning outcomes by engaging students and learners with significant interest in such technologies. Libraries offer users the opportunity to create their VR content through available software. Students can test their VR content in the libraries’ labs. Libraries support access to a variety of virtual and augmented reality content. The content is accessed using “virtual reality headsets” for viewing and workstations with “authoring software and loanable 360 cameras” for creating. The library lab is a space to support students’ digital creativity and research through virtual and augmented reality. There are 3D Design Labs within the libraries as a medium to large group design learning spaces with virtual reality technology. Libraries form a media space where users can create videos, podcasts, portfolios, edit media, and book tours, and students and researchers can explore different scientific knowledge. In this way, technology ensures that risks in learning are minimized as opposed to hands-on seminars and classes.
