Public Service Annoucement

Hello fellow librarians! Leah here and I just wanted to spread the word on something cool going over at our friends’ site, 8bitlibrary.com! They are putting on a little webinar called “Gaming: All Libraries & All Ages” for free…very cool. Here are some details from the announcement on their site:

Gaming: All Libraries & All Ages will be a webinar highlighting collection development and advocacy issues that all libraries deal with when implementing (or planning to implement) video games into library collections and services.

Attendance will be fun and free. There will be an interactive chat box for the entire session, and the event will be presented as an un-conference collaboration.

So check it out librarians! There is a facebook event page here is you want to RSVP and get in on all the gamey goodness.
