In 2024, PAE Libraries and a working group across other library services in Libraries SA worked with I&J Management Services to develop the Gaming in Libraries Framework.
This framework outlines why video games, as both collections and programs, should exist in public libraries and how libraries might go about implementing these.

In short, why?
Storytelling
We are all about stories, games let you experience stories in new immersive ways.
Equity of Access
Not everyone has access to gaming at home, equity of access is a long-standing principle of libraries.
Connection
Games let people of all ages collaborate, socialise, have fun and make friends!
