The article “Remediating cultural services in Second Life: The case of Info Island DK” was recently published by Simon Heilesen in First Monday. In 2007, Info Island DK was created as a virtual library in Second Life and studied as part of the Virtual Worlds project. This article is an account of how the library services of the physical library and the net library were remediated into a 3–D virtual world. The Info Island DK library was not widely adopted by any of the intended target groups, even if it was quite successful as demo–project. The paper discusses the factors conditioning the relative non–adoption of the new technology.
