Teens --- Come and Play Xbox360

Posted Tue, 03/23/2010 - 1:54pm by Mary Phillips

In our Teen Room, we have an Xbox360 and two controls. Just bring your library card with you and check out an Xbox360 game downstairs in our AV department. Then take your card to the Adult Reference Desk and the librarian will unlock our game cabinet. You have an hour of play time. Since we have two controls, depending on the game, you can play with a friend. When you are done, go to Adult Reference to pick up your library card and return the game to the AV department. The game console is limited to teens and one friend or family member.
