Hello collective gaming intelligence!

Does anyone know when the next ALA National Gaming Day is? I found this link
here:
http://www.ala.org/ala/newspresscenter/news/pressreleases2008/novembe....
It says it will be held Saturday, Nov 14, 2009 (buried at the bottom in fine
print), but that was in a press release last fall. Is the date still the
same? I'm trying to plan the events for our fall newsletter and the deadline
is quickly approaching. Ack!

Did anyone participate last year- and if so, did you plan anything special?
We have Wii Wednesdays here, but haven't done any tournaments, yet. Maybe we
could *try* something like that.

Thanks!

Hi, Megan --

National Gaming Day will indeed be on November 14 this year. We'll begin announcing details after ALA's Annual Conference next week.

The best places to watch for further information are ALA's Gaming Resources wiki at http://gaming.ala.og/resources and the Games and Gaming community at http://connect.ala.org/gaming.

HTH,
Jenny Levine
ALA staff
