About this Event

The full experience lasts 15 minutes.

Adventure begins at the library...Experience books in a completely new way as West Sussex Library Service celebrates its 100th anniversary. Put on one of our Virtual Reality headsets and jump into a magical world of virtual books. You have five books to choose from: Smuggling, Countryside, Cookery, History or Space.

It is going to be awesome!

Please note for families/groups if each of you want to try out all of the virtual books, we recommend booking one slot per person.

After trying the headsets, why not try out our exciting 3D posters in the library and you can also collect all the 3D virtual stickers in a hunt at your local library to complete your very own 3D world.

The Library of Possibilities and Wonder project has been made possible thanks to a grant through Arts Council England's National Lottery Project Grant programme.
