Games@the Library
was held the week of October 16-22, 2016 and was sponsored by the Atlantic
Provinces Library Association (APLA). Anytime that week, APLA encouraged all
libraries in Atlantic Canada to host a "game themed" event of their
choice (board games, chess, trivia, scavenger hunts, video games, etc.). Events
could be geared towards specific age groups or the whole community. The goal was
to show that libraries are places where people meet, learn, and have fun!
All participants
during Games@the Library week were eligible to enter their names in the grand
prize draw which will took place on November 28, 2016. A total of 640 ballots were received from 35 different libraries. One grand prize was
awarded for all of Atlantic Canada.
