Games in Schools and Libraries
Games in Schools and Libraries (GSL) is a podcast and blog dedicated to exploring how games are used in a wide variety of school and library related activities. The podcast is produced and the library side is hosted by Donald Dennis; Chris Bell joins him to share their achievements and misadventures bringing games into the library. Kathleen Mercury is our amazing host for the schools half of the podcast, sharing her incredible experiences and talking with educators.
Stephanie Frey was the founding editor-in-chief for the GSL Blog where we all share our thoughts and resources for using games of all types whether on a tabletop or on a screen.
The Games in Schools and Libraries podcast was created by Giles Pritchard, a teacher St Georges Rd Primary School in Shepparton Australia, and Donald Dennis, a librarian for the Georgetown County Library System, to look at games and their places in collections for either educational use or as part of a library collection. Giles produced the first run of the show, episodes of which are occasionally rebroadcast in the current feed in their original forms.
The Games in Schools and Libraries podcast is produced by Inverse Genius in association with the Georgetown County Library System.

Not everything can fit in the podcast, and some information needs pictures. Those are the kinds of things we hope to share on our blog!
