Software and Location

The University Libraries provide access for UNR staff, students, and faculty to several software programs which can be used to create 3D files, including .stl's and .vrml's.  Below you'll find 3D modeling software availability for both DeLaMare Library.

Public Community Members: We recommend the freely available 3D modeling program, OnShape.

Kids Software: We recommend getting kids started with the freely available 3D modeling program, Tinkercad.
