  • 1.  Viewing Discussion Posts & Committees

    Posted Aug 16, 2018 04:43 PM
    Hello Everyone, 

    Two brief things. 1. How do I obtain access to the discussion board for GAMERT? It says that I do not have access, but I am definitely a member. 

    2. If I wanted to join a committee in this roundtable, how would I go about doing that? 

    Thank you for your help!

    Hi Moriah,

    To volunteer for a committee, please fill out this form. We currently have openings on all three committees, Programming, Outreach, and International Games Week (IGW).

    This is the discussion board for GameRT. Most of the conversation happens over in in our Facebook group though, League of Librarian Gamers:

    If you have any other questions, please let me know!

    Best,

    Sara
