[OPLINLIST] Very "Cool" workshop---Video Games!

[FILIPAN, RHONDA]

A great workshop for those of you in public libraries, school libraries, and for those who work with teens!

Video Games in the Library (1 graduate credit)
October 14-15
Friday-Saturday
9:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
Kent, 315 Library
Instructor: Fred Baerkircher

Description:
Electronic games are a huge and rapidly growing, global industry, and libraries are increasingly turning to them to draw hard-to-reach audiences like 20-somethings and teens. Learn how to implement and run successful, cost-effective video game programs in a public library setting. We'll look at using existing public library equipment, handling concerns about game content, and understanding just what players are talking about when they start speaking in gamer slang.
