I'm so glad i went to the open gaming night here at the ALA conference in Anaheim. It was so much fun. I think this photo depicts what rock starts librarians can be! it was great seeing so many information professionals in action learning about various gaming tools from board games which stimulate critical thinking skills to video games which reinforce reading skills and even to physical games like DDR which keep people active. I think there are many librarians who do not feel gaming in libraries is appropriate and to those people I say, "Get out to a gaming night and see for yourself just how engaging it can be!" Great job Jenny and your ALA team!
