Purpose
- Why 3D printers are in libraries
- How people are sharing their 3D models
- Metadata for 3D objects
- Other preservation and access issues
Why Libraries?-For many years libraries have provided expensive/rare technologies people can’t afford individually
-Discipline Neutral
-Enables Collaboration
What happens after the object is printed?
Sharing 3D Models and Scans
What information about these objects are sites collecting?
What should we be collecting?
What happens if we don’t have metadata standards?
Working Groups
Potential Consequences?
Emerging Technology = Updated Versions = File Obsolescence
