    I just heard about these, and they seem really cool.  I'm going to email Fantasy Flight Games and see about the potential for making these available to libraries (as of right now only retail stores can purchase them).  Having a pre-designed "kit" for events would be fantastic!

    Perhaps it would be something they might be interested in donating for IGD?
