Gaming & Libraries Update

LTR_Gaming

I just finished reading Jenny Levine’s excellent Library Technology Report - Gaming & Libraries Update: Broadening the Intersections. It’s chock-full of interesting case studies of real library implementations of gaming programs as well as recommended resources. The report covers tabletop (board) games, big games such as LARPing (Live Action Role-Playing), as well as video games. Readers can pick up plenty of game recommendations throughout, but I will be checking further into some of the board games suggested at the end as I noticed a couple of my favorites were listed including Settlers of Catan and Ticket to Ride.

    Thanks for the thumbs up, Ellyssa :) I’m really enjoying boardgames lately, but I also have to admit to being addicted to Mario Kart Wii. So many games, so little time….
