Hi all,
You know how there is a call right now for proposal submissions for Gaming in Libraries issue of

I'm wondering if any of you would like to co-author a Starting a Tabletop Games Collections in Your Academic Library with me? Reply directly to me by Tuesday next week, Aug 25, if interested.
I imagine we might list/describe like 15-25 games (or more) to start your games collection with (possibly categories of games) and maybe suggestions for how to grow the collection. I'm flexible! I love board games and would love to write up something that would help other game-loving librarians start their own library collections. (note: my context is specifically academic libraries)
Also, if someone is already doing this, please let me know!
With care,
Jeffra

As a member of the Cal State East Bay community with an office on the Hayward campus, I acknowledge that I am a guest on the unceded land of the First People of this region, the present-day Muwekma Ohlone Tribe of the San Francisco Bay Area (formerly Verona Band of Alameda County). I support the sovereignty of this Chochenyo-Ohlone-speaking tribal group and other indigenous peoples. This acknowledgment was created by the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe with the support of the CSUEB Indigenous Acknowledgement Collective and is a living document.
