This talk considers the role of the university library in teaching with videogames, focusing on access and logistics through case studies of class assignments. The talk will examine a range of topics for research and how even short blocks of time in the library can be used effectively for student success in game studies. Examples of faculty and student research include identity studies, colonialism, narrative structures in Japanese media, and player-character identification.
