A video virtual tour is now available of the Perkins and Bostock Libraries at Duke University.

The Library has also assembled a downloadable audio tour of the new Bostock facility. The tour is in MP3 format and can be used with any portable digital audio player, including the iPod.

To use the tour, download the MP3 files (linked below individually, and also available all together in a Zip file) to your computer and copy them to your MP3 player.

To begin the walking tour, start at the main entrance lobby of the Bostock Library. The audio will describe features of the building and the location of library offices and services as you are guided through the building by the narrator. It takes approximately 25 minutes to complete the walking tour.
