Industry Reviews

Bruno's book Gaming Programs for All Ages at the Library is not only a must have resource for anyone working in public libraries today, but it also manages to accomplish a key element of gaming within its pages....the book is fun! Tom's writing style, coupled with his deep knowledge about gaming and his enthusiasm for community first service, gives the reader a fun read while they also immerse themselves in all things gaming. -- Justin Hoenke, Executive Director, Benson Memorial Library
