Abstract

To promote an academic library makerspace, the University of Mississippi Libraries hosted a “3D selfie” booth which used body scanning technology. This booth, advertised on campus and set up outside the library during the first weeks of class, was designed to attract attention and perform outreach through the use of body scans to be printed in the makerspace at a later date. Although the hoped-for printing of “selfies” did not materialize, the project resulted in data about interested patrons and ideas for similar projects going forward. This paper serves as a case study for other academic library makerspaces interested in similar outreach.

忠于自己的 3D 自拍

为了推广学术图书馆创客空间，密西西比大学图书馆主办了一个使用人体扫描技术的 "3D 自拍 "展台。该展台在开课的前几周就在校园内做了广告，并设立在图书馆外，旨在通过使用人体扫描技术吸引人们的注意，并在日后在创客空间打印出来。虽然希望打印 "自拍照 "的愿望没有实现，但该项目获得了有关感兴趣的读者的数据以及今后开展类似项目的想法。本文可作为案例研究，供有兴趣开展类似推广活动的其他学术图书馆创客空间参考。
