As gaming has grown in our culture, libraries have started to create their
own programs. Games can be added to library programming for both recreation
and curricular support. Additionally, an increasing amount of research has
shown that games, perhaps due to their interactive nature, both strengthen
and teach skills known to be important for people in the workforce, such as
critical thinking, creativity, and teamwork. In this course the instructors
will discuss how they have each created gaming programs at their own
libraries. Attendees will be encouraged to consider their own community
needs when creating a gaming program.

- Attendees will identify ways they can incorporate gameplay into their
library.
- Attendees will evaluate their community needs to determine if games are a
useful focus.
- Attendees will have the tools to create a gaming proposal for their
library.

Teresa Slobuski is the Head Librarian of the Vairo Library at Penn State
Brandywine. In this role, she oversees all operations of the library.

to improve both representation and recognition of all in libraries.

at Rutgers University. She has conducted research on a variety of topics
such as the impact of non-text media on information retrieval, children's
literature, informal learning and the development of 21st century skills,
library space usage, and educational technology topics, especially the use
of games.
