This document discusses opportunities for libraries and librarians in Second Life. Second Life is a 3D virtual world created by its residents. It allows users to explore virtual representations of real-world places and interact with other users. The document outlines how libraries have established a presence in Second Life through virtual library spaces used for meetings, lectures, exhibits and simulations. It also discusses barriers to using Second Life and provides recommendations on how to get started and places to visit within the virtual world.
