We have a collection of games that anyone is welcome to borrow or play inside the library! Those on the Games Shelf near the reference desk can be checked out for a period of one week using your library card; the others can be used anywhere inside the library. If a game’s location is “Teen Room,” they’re on the shelves behind the teen desk and may be taken at any time. If a game’s location is storage, ask at the teen desk or reference desk and a staff member will be happy to get it for you.
Information about a game’s suggested number of players, age range, and time to play is taken from the game’s instructions (when available). If a game’s name is linked, it will take you off the library’s website and to the game’s page on the community BoardGameGeek, which will provide instructions and crowd-sourced reviews. If the location “Games Shelf” is linked, you can click that link to see if that game is currently on the shelf or checked out.
Besides games, we’ve got a whole bunch of other non-traditional items you can check out from our Library of Things Collection!
