The document discusses the Park Ridge Public Library's decision to start a video game collection and the challenges involved in implementing it. It provides statistics showing the popularity and widespread use of video games. The library surveyed patrons and saw increased circulation of young adult books and games after starting its video game collection. The collection brought in new users, especially male patrons ages 18-34. It helped make the library more relevant to parts of the community and culture it was not previously serving well.

Video Game Powerpoint
The document discusses the history and evolution of video games from the earliest arcade games in the 1970s to modern consoles. It describes key events like the release of Pong, Space Invaders, Pac-Man, and the video game crash of 1983. It then summarizes the rise of Nintendo and the revival of the video game industry in the 1980s through popular games like Super Mario Bros.
Gaming evolution
This document discusses the evolution of games from early genres to future virtual worlds. It summarizes key game genres including action, fighting, role-playing, and sports. The future of gaming may involve stimulating all five senses through sights, sounds, and potentially smells. Virtual worlds allow people to interact in simulated environments and buy virtual goods. Some gamers become highly engaged by joining guilds, earning money through game assets, or researching games. Sandbox games offer open-ended, goal-less exploration. While games provide enjoyment and learning, excessive play can lead to addiction symptoms like depression and withdrawal from social activities.
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.

Video games' violence 2021
This document discusses the debate around whether violent video games can lead to real-world violence. It begins by defining video games and noting they have often been criticized for violent content. It then examines studies that have found both a link and no link between video game violence and aggressive behavior. While some politicians and media blame video games for mass shootings, the document argues there is no evidence that video games directly cause violence, though they may increase aggression. It acknowledges some video games contain graphic violence as a form of artistic expression. In the end, it cautions that rage from competitive games should not be confused with aggression toward others.
The Power of Gaming: A Brief Why, What, and How of Video Games in Libraries
The document discusses the growing popularity of video games and their potential benefits for libraries. It provides definitions of digital and complex games and outlines some of the educational benefits of games, such as improved problem solving skills. The document then addresses challenges libraries may face in starting a video game collection and programming, such as selecting consoles and titles, developing policies, and budgeting. Tips are provided for video game programming and promoting game design activities for all ages.

Video games as meaningful entertainment experiences
Video games as meaningful entertainment experiencesWest Virginia University - Department of Communication Studies
Abstract: An experiment was conducted to examine individuals’ perceptions of their recall of enjoyable and meaningful video games, as well as the game characteristics and dimensions of need-satisfaction associated with experiences of enjoyment and appreciation. Participants (N = 512) were randomly assigned to one of two groups that asked them to recall a game that they found either particularly fun or particularly meaningful, and to then rate their perceptions of the game that they recalled. Enjoyment of the game was equally high for both groups, though appreciation was higher in the meaningful- than fun-game condition. Enjoyment of games was most strongly associated with gameplay characteristics and satisfaction of needs related to competency and autonomy, whereas appreciation of games was most strongly associated with story characteristics and satisfaction of needs related to insight and relatedness.

The document discusses strategies for building and managing a video game collection in a library setting. It provides guidance on evaluating and selecting games based on criteria like plot, characters and gameplay. It also covers cataloging, storing, and promoting games through reviews and magazines. Best practices are highlighted such as focusing collections on particular consoles and age groups, and using security measures and circulation policies for rented games.
Video games and consumption
The document discusses key details about the global games market including:
- Gamers span all ages but core gamers are typically 18-49 years old.
- There are different types of gamers from core to casual.
- The global games market is expected to grow to $86 billion by 2016.
- YouTube is an important community for gamers to watch gameplay videos.
- Digital downloads are convenient but physical games allow resale and collecting.
Digital Downloads
The document discusses various options for digital game downloads and subscriptions for gamers. It lists over 500 Prima strategy guide eGuides available for $12.99 each. It also lists several subscription services like GameTap and Games On Demand that provide unlimited access to game libraries. Additionally, it recommends bookmarking websites for children and teens/adults that provide free online games.
Audiences and videogames
The document discusses findings from the BBFC's 2006 research into video game audiences. It found that younger gamers are influenced to play violent titles due to peer pressure, and that negative press coverage increases interest. However, younger players often find game violence upsetting. The research also found gender differences in game preferences, with females preferring non-violent games and males favoring first-person shooters and sports games.

It then discusses how libraries can support gamers by connecting games to other materials, researching gaming culture, and hosting gaming programs. The document provides examples of successful gaming programs and best practices for developing gaming collections in libraries.
Game On
The document discusses how libraries can incorporate video games to better serve teenage patrons. It provides examples of successful gaming programs hosted by libraries, such as tournaments for games like Mario Kart and Guitar Hero. The document also discusses developing video game collections, circulating games, and using games to help with reader's advisory and connecting patrons to other materials.
Core Videogame Collections for Youth
The document discusses developing a gaming collection for a library. It recommends collecting magazines, strategy guides, and fiction related to gaming. Formats to collect include console, handheld, and PC games. The document provides questions to consider for a collection policy and reviews different resources for selecting games, including patron recommendations. It also discusses purchasing options, model gaming collections at other libraries, and recommended games for different age groups and platforms.
Video Games: Advantages and Disadvantages
This document discusses video games and gaming consoles. It notes that while games can provide social, intellectual, and educational benefits like improved coordination, reaction time, and problem solving skills, they also have disadvantages like potential isolation, overuse leading to physical problems, and being an expensive hobby. The document also lists the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 as commonly used consoles and acknowledges that new motion-sensing games require more physical activity.
Video games and audience
The document discusses different types of video game audiences: casual audiences who do not view gaming as a special event; devoted audiences who specifically choose and return to certain games; and avid audiences for whom gaming becomes part of their lives. It also outlines the appeal of video games, including their immersive narratives that allow interaction and choice-based storytelling. Finally, it addresses concerns that violent games may desensitize or influence players, as well as the role of gaming media in shaping opinions.
Videogames
Videogames are an important medium to study alongside film for media examinations. While videogames share similarities with film as a contemporary media, they differ in that players are both the audience and actively participate through gameplay. Many early videogames, especially adventure and beat 'em up genres, tended to represent masculinity through themes of violence, misogyny, and portraying men as thuggish and women as victims or sexual objects. Although the average gamer is now older, historically most games were designed by mostly male developers for a perceived core male audience.

What IA, UX and SEO Can Learn from Each Other
Google has become the arbiter how users experience a website. Their data-driven determinants of what constitute good UX directly influence how a site is found. This is wrong because people, not machines, should determine experience; Google does not tell the SEO or UX community what data is used to measure experience and many elements of experience cannot be measured.This presentation reveals why Google uses UX signals to determine placement in search results and how to create a customer pleasing and highly visible user experience for your website.

Their study found that girls are interested in IT but not IT jobs due to unrealistic stereotypes, lack of creativity/real-world problems, and negative influences. Programs involving education and industry can increase girls' STEM interest by 20% by engaging them early and using engaging teaching approaches in computer science beyond just digital literacy. Measurable multi-stakeholder programs, including computer science in curriculums and teacher training, along with informal education, can help make this happen.
