In the last few years, however, my definition has changed. Now, when I think of "gaming" it's usually in the context of having friends or family over for a game night at which we play board games like <a href="https://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=3580338&ymlink=304977826&finalurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Ezmangames%2Ecom%2Fen%2Fproducts%2Fcarcassonne%2F">Carcassone</a>, <a href="https://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=3580338&ymlink=304977826&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Eblueorangegames%2Ecom%2Findex%2Ephp%2Fgames%2Fphotosynthesis">Photosynthesis</a>, <a href="https://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=3580338&ymlink=304977826&finalurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Ezmangames%2Ecom%2Fen%2Fgames%2Fpandemic%2F">Pandemic</a>, or even roleplaying games like <a href="https://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=3580338&ymlink=304977826&finalurl=https%3A%2F%2Fpaizo%2Ecom%2Fpathfinder%2Frpg">Pathfinder</a> or <a href="https://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=3580338&ymlink=304977826&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fdnd%2Ewizards%2Ecom%2F">D&D</a>.

<p><span style="color: #333333; font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: small; background-color: #ffffff;">As librarians, we know that not everyone has equal access to the resources and information needed to experience something like tabletop gaming, be it because of money, space, or time. In fact, many libraries are already circulating board games and D&D guides for patrons to borrow. On January 10th, <a href="https://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=3580338&ymlink=304977826&finalurl=https%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2Fevents%2FEventDetails%2Easpx%3Fid%3D1173694%26group%3D">join us</a> at SWON for a Level-Up Lab designed to help you learn all about Dungeons & Dragons and how you can bring it to your library. For the first hour, you'll hear about the history of the game, the skills it imparts to its players, and how you can run a D&D program at your very own library. In the second hour, you will get to play D&D to get a feel for the game and see the mechanics of what makes it work. Don't be shy if you have never seen D&D before, all levels of experience are welcome at this lab! Space is limited! <a href="https://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=3580338&ymlink=304977826&finalurl=https%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2Fevents%2FEventDetails%2Easpx%3Fid%3D1173694%26group%3D">Register now</a> to reserve your spot!</span></p>
