A lot of discussion and news has been shared about gaming in libraries lately. Just about all of that seems to me to involve public libraries. That makes it all the more interesting that the university library of my alma mater, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, has recently announced an initiative around gaming, mostly targeted at undergraduates. The library is working collaboratively with other departments and units on campus to collect and preserve access to games and learning systems being developed as part of classwork and research at UIUC. Interesting.
