What does my library need to do in order to participate in National Gaming Day activities?
It’s completely up to you how your library participates in this international event. One of the great things about gaming is that it scales for any size library with any size budget in any size building. Some libraries ask patrons or staff to bring in their copies of games such as Scrabble, Monopoly, and Life, while others reach out to local board game groups/stores to bring in new games that patrons may not be familiar with.Libraries that want to do a trial run for video game programming sometimes ask the teen advisory group to bring in equipment for National Gaming Day.If your library is too small to use even a corner for a NGD10 event or if you’re not open that Saturday, consider partnering with another local library in your area (academic, public, or school) to participate regionally. All types of libraries participate in all types of ways, from a chess game out on a table all the way up to participation in the national video game tournaments. Whatever works for you works for us.
