Libraries are known as community spaces; however, librarians can be excellent partners with game developers. In recent years library administrators have begun exploring ways to better serve patrons who participate and consume media across a diversity of new platforms, including digital games (Wieder 2011). Most libraries focus on creating digital game collections or hosting events to play digital games (Bishoff et al. 2015). At the University of Utah a game development lab is housed in the Spencer S. Eccles Health Sciences Library and collaborates with librarians. This poster will highlight reasons for partnerships, best practices, and how to start conversations at your university.
