Comments
The information was broad, which was a nice glimpse of games in libraries for the first time this conference was held. I could for sure see it growing in the future. I was inspired to start a conversation with my library director about adding video games to the collection! [I] have already put some things into practice at our library. I enthusiastically support the existence of this conference! It was a unique, specific, and helpful tool as my institution creates our own video games collection to support the academic needs of our campus. Thank you for serving decent coffee!!! No really. You get serious bonus points for that, conference coffee is usually the worst! Well done all around. I really hope this can keep going. I enjoyed the experience and found value in everything we did. It was a lovely conference and a great way to meet other librarians who care about gaming in libraries. I made some great contacts and would love to help out/present if the conference is held again. Thank you! I am so thankful this was organized, and I feel this was a very successful utilization of WiLS funding! I hope that it continues next year and beyond.

Ideas To Action
Proposal Tips
What do you want to accomplish this year?
24
25
Change how we think about, charge for, communicate, and contract for consulting, consortium management, and grant projects.
2%, or 42 hours/year for a full-time staff position, will be dedicated to pro bono activities that could include committee service, presentations, grant or publication reviews, etc.
Change events and learning opportunities to have two potential models: Cost recovery or contributed for the community good with no revenue expected.
Investigate moving cooperative purchasing fees to a tiered membership model and undertake activities toward that end.
Increase the knowledge base we have available for project requests either as additional staff and/or one-time projects to build relationships and test experts that could have value to our members.
