To: [log in to unmask]

I would like to know the different views for having PC games in the library.  If any of your libraries have games, how do various libraries offer the use of these to the students?  Are individual games loaned out or are they for library use only. We have acquired 10 PC games; such as “War Craft”, “Prince of Persia”, “Far Cry” etc. and we are not certain if we should have a gaming station in the library on dedicated PCs or loan the games out to the users.

Would appreciate your views and suggestions.

Thanks.
