I know the University of Oklahoma Libraries is doing some really cool things with VR and other things. Here's the page for their Innovation @ the Edge program: https://libraries.ou.edu/edge which also has contact information. I think they've been doing VR stuff for at least a year or two now.

I would recommend going to www.polygon.com and looking for articles by "Ben
Kuchera." He's a video game journalist and VR enthusiast and has been
writing extensively about the VR landscape for a few years. Definitely a
good place to start.
