The purpose of gaming in the Media & Gaming Lab is to enhance the academic and community atmosphere on the Lindenwood University Campus, to support the Game Design program on campus, and to support our greater mission statement. We recognize that gaming is not only a popular hobby, but also an emerging field of study, covering a wide variety of disciplines. We also recognize the role that gaming, in a wide variety of formats, can play in enhancing a positive social environment.
The library offers a variety of opportunities for social gaming throughout the school year. These events will be a time for fun and social interaction, as well as an opportunity for gaming scholarship at Lindenwood University to engage in a live event study. During these events, we may setup TVs and video game systems for open gaming. The open gaming depends on what demand calls for; a call for suggestions will be posted at the beginning of the semester.
Our library hosts Open RPG and Switch nights throughout the semester.
You can find a gaming group at Lindenwood's student organization website.
The library has Playstation 5, Playstation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Switch 2 games in our collection. We also have a classic PC games collection on the PC in the Immersive Reality and Game Hub, LARC 322. All Lindenwood University faculty, staff, and students are welcome to use them.
