Example of Interactive Displays/Booths

The Better Together Conference Photo Gallery is now online.

This new feature of the Better Together Conference website is designed to provide ideas for the four conference collaborative project areas:

• interactive navigation and wayfinding techniques in physical facilities
• interactive displays/booths for use at community events/fairs
• interactive elements to enhance existing websites/portals
• production of public programs using webcasting

The first album in the Gallery showcases an interactive display designed for the Better Together Conference exhibit booth at the November 2005 California Library Association Conference.

The Cerritos Library and the Pacific Asia Museum, one of the Better Together Conference partners, collaborated on the design of the booth's backdrop. The museum provided images from the Nature of the Beast online educational and interactive exploration of the way artists of Edo-period Japan depicted animals and the natural world.

The Library provided selected items from its Art of the Book: The Book as Art special collection and designed an interactive visitor experience that resulted in the making of a new book for the collection.

Booth visitors were invited to add pages to the new book. Each page represents a visitor's wish for changing libraries.

Detailed information about the creation the Art of the Book: The Book as Art visitor experience will be provided at the Better Together Conference.
