Board Games at the Library IMC

Connect with resources on gaming and information bout the library's circulating tabletop game collection.

The Library has games? Yes we do!

In 2017 we bought a few classic games for a finals "brain break" event. Then we thought, why not let people borrow them? Not long after we received a few as gifts and then requests started coming in. The collection is small but growing. Game on!

Quick facts:

Where they are: 1st floor near the IMC Help desk

What type we have: table top games, plus a few roll playing games and supplemental books

What's available: You can come in and browse the shelves or you can search the library catalog. The link below goes to a complete listing of the games sorted by title.

  • There is no limit to how may one person can borrow but we ask you to be considerate. Loans may be renewed once if no one else is waiting for that game.
  • Games may be put on Hold following the directions for book holds below. Pick up will be at the Main Library Help Desk.
  • Please return games to the IMC or Main Library Help Desk staff even if you only used the game in the library. This helps us see what is popular and helps us decide on new purchases!
