Digital Games in Libraries and Information Science

Notas do Editor

  1. Through history, and in the mainstream media, librarians have a dowdy, frumpy, killjoy image.
  2. Heck, you can even buy “action” figures of them. With shushing action.
  3. Been to any library schools lately. Do so and you’ll find a very different generation of librarians.
  4. They party, have fun, communicate, party, know how to have a good time, party, and play video games.
  5. Go to library exhibitions. What’s the most popular stands? The ones with video games.
  6. If Led Zeppelin were formed today, most of their members would have been librarians in their previous jobs.
  7. Christy Branston, GovInfo librarian, tasked with training 32 staff. Game integral. Set dates for doing the lessons; prizes encouraged participation.
  8. Thanks to Jonas Heide Smith for the screendump.
  9. The big event for librarians and games. And there’ll be another one next year.
  10. The recent Internet Librarian 2007 Conference in California. Sessions that explicitly mention gaming, virtual worlds or Second Life are circled.
  11. There’s quite a few areas of common research that are largely untapped. This raises the related issue of whether similar research methods can be transferred from one field to the other.
