Waiting to present at the Gen Con professional/trade day, I must admit to having a few butterflies about the prospect of flipping from my comfortable role of talking about games to librarians, to talking about libraries to gamers. Gen Con, billed as “The best four days in gaming” is a massive gaming conference that beats ALA Annual conference by a few thousand attendees.
I Love Libraries has a booth on the exhibit floor to help emphazie the potential for collaboration betweeen gaming and libraries. They will also be passing out copies of the AASL gaming alignment document created by Brian Mayer and the School Library System of Genesee Valley BOCES (where I work). More updates from the trade day and exhibit floor to follow. For now, here is a shot of me at the Gygax memorial die and a link to my presentations [No longer available] for this afternoon.
