3D scanning is a process that collects data on any physical object or space and uses that data to create a digital three-dimensional model. At present, the University Libraries at the Schuylkill campus is investigating the utility of having a 3D laser scanner available to the campus as a library service. Much like 2D scanning of documents and books, the 3D scanner will provide a space for students, faculty, and staff to scan objects both for research and instruction.
