I am not a gamer. Pretty sure the last game I played with any enthusiasm was Pokemon Yellow for the Game Boy Color and that definitely had something to do with the fact that my brother was playing it. That being said, gamer culture has recently had a measurable impact on teens in the library. From enhancing the collection with titles such as Little Brother (Doctorow), Brain Jack (Falkner), and Rush (Silver), to growing a video game collection, to promoting the upcoming film adaptation of Ready Player One (Cline), library shelves now reflect bits of the gamer world.
As a non-gamer I love good resources and Jordan Erica Webber over at The Guardian recently released an article examining the most prevalent gaming trends of this past year. From inclusion of disabled and LGBTQ people, to the exploration of mental health this year has seen the gaming industry grow and change. Check out the full article
