Registration has now opened for this year’s Games in Libraries Conference at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. The conference will be held on May 31 in the university’s McIntyre Library and the Registration Form can be found online now.

The Games in Libraries Conference is geared towards staff from all types of libraries (public, academic, and special) and will includes more than a dozen presentations and social events, including a keynote presentation by University of Wisconsin–Whitewater Library Director Paul Waelchli, “From Fluxx to Fortnite: Lifelong Learning through Good Gaming.”

Admission is free, but the conference will be limited to 75 attendees:

As many things in our society become “gamifed” (e.g., Snapchat streaks), we need to learn and understand the various ways in which games of all types can be used as educational tools. This conference is one in which we hope to show, share, and learn from peers about how they use games in libraries, why adding games to a collection might be useful, and how they can promote their use with their users.
