Purpose

Design/methodology/approach

– Opinion piece.

Findings

– There are several cutting edge but increasingly affordable technologies which could attract students to the library and raise the library’s profile.

Research limitations/implications

– It would be interesting to design a study of library use and determine if the addition of unusual technologies had any effects.

Practical implications

– Given the affordability of some devices, there is little risk involved in proceeding with establishment and furnishing of a Center for Digital Learning, Teaching and Scholarship at the library.

Originality/value

– A literature search for drones and libraries retrieved no scholarly articles, but did bring back one or two news pieces about circulating drones at the University of South Florida.
