  16. Virtual 3-D Models in the Library It is 2012 and most research libraries are now outfitted with real-time, immersive theaters…”Users of the theater feel as if they are right in the middle of the subject of their study - be it ancient Rome, the three stable members of the C2H4O Group of isotomers, the interacting galaxy NBC 4038/9 in Corvus, or the geological stratigraphy of Mars. At will, users can fly over Earth and, moving a time bar, set themselves down at any one of several hundred sites of great importance to humanity’s cultural history.” Bernard Frischer, The Ultimate Internet Café.
