Announcements & News

Mark your calendars for the NIH Research Festival, September 12-14. During the Festival, we will be highlighting innovative technologies we make available from the NIH Library to support research at NIH. Join us in the Library for some (educational) fun on Wednesday and Thursday, September 12 and 13, from 12 to 4 p.m.

Large 3D modeling files can be challenging to work with and often take a long time to open and modify. In this class, attendees will learn about the tools, settings, and practices that can be used to create and navigate through large assembly models more easily.

On September 13 and 14, the NIH Library will be participating in the Festival by highlighting Virtual Reality (VR) and 3D Printing as two of the innovative technologies we make available to support research at NIH. 

Come to the NIH Safety, Health & Wellness Day event, where the NIH Library will be giving Virtual Reality demonstrations.
