The use of virtual reality environments presents serious limitations concerning the user's access to specific resources such as databases and specialist systems. These limitations can be overcome through the use of virtual characters controlled by the computer - the so-called simuloids - which are responsible for accessing the resources on behalf of the user. In this paper, we present an intelligent librarian simuloid, called BIA, which is responsible for accessing an electronic dictionary in a distributed virtual reality environment for language learning. The efficient solution proposed herein can be extended as a mean for efficient access to external resources from virtual reality environments.
