This special day, officially observed on Nov. 15, 2014 is an initiative now in its 7th year, and run by volunteers from around the world and held under the auspices of the American Library Association (www.ala.org), in partnership with Nordic Game Day and the Australian Library and Information Association.
The goal is to reconnect communities through their libraries around the educational, recreational and social value of all types of games. More than 1,000 libraries around the world will participate and showcase gaming programs and services.
