Board Games for Checkout


Board Games for Checkout

Is your Dungeon Master a disaster? Get back to basics with our board games. Board games are now available in the library for checkout!

Why games?

The PCC Library’s new games collection is intended to support a variety of student and curricular needs. Games provide relaxation, promote social interaction and collaboration, and often support student skills in logic, strategic thinking, vocabulary, and communication.

The anticipated users of the board games collection include students relaxing between classes, students checking out games to play elsewhere, clubs and groups using games as icebreakers or to promote teamwork, and instructors using games to support classroom learning.

Here is an abbreviated list of titles that are part of the core collection:

  • Uno
  • Ludo
  • Set
  • Scrabble
  • Dominoes
  • Dixit
  • Splendor
  • Connect 4
  • Loonacy
  • Code Names
  • Pictionary
  • Telestrations
  • Sorry
  • Kingdomino
  • Last Word
  • Loteria
  • Single Digit
  • And many more….

When will the games be available and what do I need to know before checking them out?

The core collection is available now.  All games have a 6 week checkout with 1 renewal. All members of the PCC community will be allowed to check them out. Games will be listed in our online catalog, but they will not be requestable, and they must be returned to the campus where they were checked out.
