Libraries Host Gaming Events
Teachers: looking for a way to encourage an interest in reading in your students? Parents: do you wish for a way to get your kids to put down the joystick and pick up a book?
Librarians and educators all over have been feeling your pain and have been looking for a way to reach out to the younger video gamers among us. Their solution: tie gaming interests to literature and an interest in competitive gaming to a visit to the local library.
Creative librarians and libraries are beginning to host gaming nights to promote reading and introduce libraries into the lives of teenage and younger citizens. Read more about this development at the Shifted Librarian.
