Abstract
Proximity Beacons, or iBeacons, use a Bluetooth signal to deliver messages to mobile devices when a user is in range. Radford University used iBeacons placed throughout the library to create an interactive game for National Library Week that helps students make connections between the library's physical and virtual spaces.
