The passage discusses the history and current state of bridges in the city of Königsberg (now Kaliningrad, Russia). It notes that Leonhard Euler proved the original 7-bridge configuration did not allow for an Eulerian path. After World War II bombing destroyed some bridges, the network was altered so an Eulerian path is now theoretically possible but impractical. A model of the original bridges exists at a New Zealand university.

COMPISSUES04 - Games
A presentation introducing students to the concept of Games and their importance in modern life. Non-technical, and suitable for use in a 'soft skills' module.
Computer gaming
Computer gaming involves games played on PCs using interfaces like keyboards, mice, or joysticks. PC games can be played at home, unlike arcade games which are in public settings. Most computer game developers are small enterprises that hire programmers, artists, and others to create games. Multiple PCs connected through a local area network and copies of the same game allow people to play computer games together over a LAN.
Gaming and Libraries: November AZLA Presentation
Attached are slides I created for the AZLA conference in November of 2007 on Gaming in Libraries. I am an advocate for changing the policies in libraries so that games and game programming is more readily available for our patrons. If you would like to use part of my presentation, feel free but please send me an email so I can see how it is being used.
Video Gaming
1) Video games have historically underrepresented women and minorities in both character representations and marketing. Female characters have often been limited to tropes like the damsel in distress.
2) More recent games have provided more options for customizing avatars and their race/gender, but stereotypes still persist in both character designs and player interactions. For example, most black male characters are athletes.
3) Massively multiplayer online role-playing games in particular can reinforce real-world biases through the social interactions between globally connected players. Representations in games both shape and reflect societal views.
Online gaming culture 2
The document discusses different perspectives on analyzing games. Narratologists argue that games can be interpreted like literary texts due to their underlying narrative structures. However, Ludologists assert that a game's meaning is expressed solely through its rules and mechanics. They believe games should be studied based on their formal systems rather than representational elements. There is also discussion around cultural contexts of gaming, immersive experiences, and world building within games. The document touches on various game design principles and patterns as well as research skills relevant to studying games.
Beyond Bait: Video Games and Literacy
This document discusses how video games can promote literacy. It notes that 97% of U.S. teens play video games, and 87% have a game console at home. The document argues that video games require skills like comprehension, discussion, analysis and critique that enhance literacy. It explores how video games involve multimodal, social and situated forms of literacy. Examples are given showing how games can teach navigation of symbolic domains and transfer of skills. The document suggests libraries could apply these ideas through shared gaming worlds, fan fiction programs, and discussion groups to promote literacy.
NCLA Presentation On Gaming
1) Gaming in libraries is important for developing skills like following rules, strategic thinking, and collaboration that are useful for life.
2) Libraries can start gaming programs with little money by using donated games, partnering with local game shops, and having patrons bring their own games.
3) Making games is another low-cost option, and libraries can teach game design using free software. Partnerships within the community can also help gaming programs.
Erica ruyle gaming - 2011
1) Video games can be successfully incorporated into market research if the three Gs of gaming are understood: Gamers, Games, and Gaming.
2) To engage gamers in market research, the activities must be immersive, fun, and allow gamers to achieve in-game rewards and status through competition, as they would in their regular gaming activities.
3) Different types of games appeal to gamers in different ways, so it is important to understand the various genres like MMOs, FPS, RPGs and how core gaming concepts like graphics, story, gameplay and community foster engagement for different audiences.

The Time is Now 5-8-2017
The Grafton Public Library Planning and Building Committee provided an update on plans to expand and renovate the library. They presented a conceptual design that is 14% smaller than a previous 2011 plan. To receive a state grant, the new library must house 85,000 items, seat 100 people and provide parking. Committee projections show rising library use and a need for more public computers and a meeting room. The proposed expansion would cost $16.6 million total but the town's cost would be $10 million after a $6.6 million state grant. The committee argued this is the best option financially and for the community's library needs.
