International Games Day at CBPL, Nov. 18

The Coos Bay Public Library joins thousands in celebrating the popularity and power of games and play.  The Coos Bay Public Library will join over a thousand libraries around the world on November 19, 2016, for the ninth annual celebration of gaming in libraries – International Games Day @ Your Library. Like so many other libraries across the country and around the world, the Coos Bay Public Library will offer special gaming programs suitable for the whole family. The library’s celebration of International Games Day will feature dozens of board games for players of all ages, as well as a giant version of Tsuro, a game where dragons (players) compete to create a path that keeps them on the board and away from other dragons. This free event will take place Saturday, November 19th from 12-4 p.m. No registration is required. International Games Day @ Your Library is an international initiative supported by the American Library Association, the Australian Library and Information Association, and Nordic Game Day.
