National Gaming Day this weekend at The Urbana Free Library!



On Saturday (11/12), join us from 2-6 for board games in the MacFarlane-Hood Reading Room on the first floor. Choose a game to play from the library's new collection of board games for adults and families. We have some old classics like Go and Backgammon, as well as new favorites like deck-building Dominion and treasure-hunting Tobago. Never heard of 'em? No problem. We'll have staff and volunteers standing by to lead demonstrations of how to play. Grab some warm beverages at the coffee shop and spend an enjoyable afternoon playing games with friends at the library. This is an all-ages event.

On Sunday (11/13) teens can join us from 2-5 for video gaming in the Lewis auditorium on the ground floor. Bring your own games and consoles (no M rated games please), or use the library’s wii consoles and games projected on the walls! There will also be board gaming, cards, and free pizza! This is a teens-only event.

Both of these events are now monthly drop-in sessions on the second Saturday of most months!
