The Reality of Virtual Tours in ARL Libraries.
Mach, Michelle; Oling, Lori
Internet Reference Services Quarterly, v7 n4 p1-11 2002
One hundred twenty-three Association of Research Libraries (ARL) Web sites were examined for the presence of a virtual tour. Over half offered at least one. Each main or undergraduate library tour was reviewed for the use of standard Web conventions, features, content and navigation using a checklist of 32 items. Emerging trends and recommendations for virtual tour designers were identified. The checklist is appended. (Author/AEF)
