That was myself and my colleague, Jenny Foreman.
The 'Information Literacy Game' we ran was developed from something called the 'Social Media Game'. There's a description of the Social Media Game at: http://social-media-game.wikispaces.com/.
The materials were available on our Community of Practice. That no longer exists, so at some point, I will find another home for them. Possibly my own blog. In the meantime, if anyone wants to know more, just ping me an email.

Subject: Re: A possible training event!
Great idea.
Maybe an opportunity to pool various ideas. A while ago, at a Scottish clip event a Scottish gov il team, came up with a good game ... Not sure if that's freely available. At Loughborough we've used an info management personalities 'game' to discuss practice in local government.
A workshop could play around with different ideas, evaluate them, come up with new ideas, and help make them more widely available.
Anything that helps people engage with and become more conscious of their il is good news.
