Apologies for cross-posting...
There are still a few places left, so if you were thinking of coming along, please book now! There are also some bargain places if you're currently an LIS student :)
I'm pleased to announce another Making Games for Libraries event! This time in London on 13th May... booking is online via Eventbrite and open now!
http://games4libraries.eventbrite.co.uk/
It will be a very practical day of making games for libraries and for information literacy instruction. After running this event in Leeds, 100% of attendees (who filled in the feedback form!) rated it good or excellent, more feedback from the previous events plus lots of shared materials are available on the blog (http://gamesforlibraries.blogspot.co.uk/).
We will play one or two games to start the day, followed by a short talk on games and play to help give context for the day.
The bulk of the day will then consist of group work - creating and prototyping games for use within your libraries.
If you wish to, one of the booking options also includes a class set (5 copies) of professionally printed copies of an information literacy game, SEEK! (http://eprints.hud.ac.uk/15377/), enough to play with a full class of 30 to 40 people.
Note: Although the event is held at CILIP HQ, please note this is an event I'm organising myself as a private individual and does not fall under the aegis of any organisation.
Hope lots of you will come and play...
