It's on! AASL (school librarians division) and GameRT are co-sponsoring the AASL National Gorum this fall on gaming and learning. The event will be held September 23-24 in Rochester, NY including wonderful evening at The Strong National Museum of Play. I am very excited to be co-chairing the conference planning committee and will be outting out requests for additional committee members as planning moves forward.
Some of you will recall the incredible ALA Gaming Learning and Libraries symposia that were held a number of years ago. This event will hopefully offer an opportunity for GameRT to explore options for reviving a small gathering around gaming in libraries as a more regular happening. For now I am just excited that GameRT is involved as a co-sponsor for this event and that Game-RT members will receive he same registration discounts as AASL members.
