  • Additional Information
    • Abstract:
      The article offers information on geocoaching, a modern-day version of a treasure hunt or the older practice of letterboxing, requires participants to use a GPS to find containers, or caches, at a particular set of geographical coordinates. It is inferred that geocoaching is becoming more popular, and librarians can benefit in various ways from participating. University libraries, for example, can attract alumni, faculty, and students to their location and raise awareness of their programs and services. Public libraries can partner with community institutions and integrate geocoaching into other programs.
