York St John event

Had a great day at York St John this week, invited by Katy to run a making games workshop. We ended up with four prototypes by the end of the day, which should appear as soon as my very slow internet connection can upload them!

It was a mix of people at the workshop, not just librarians, and it was great how people such as IT and library worked together to create the games.
