If you are a student, staff, or faculty at Cal State East Bay, you can now borrow games and bring them home to play. The complete list can be found in the Library Catalog. Here are a list of some games you can borrow:
These games can be picked up on the short shelves next to the children's books and then taken to the Checkout Desk to be borrowed. Up to two games may be checked out at a time with a one-week renewal. Please double, triple-check to make sure all parts are back in the game before you return it. Thank you!
Email Jeffra.Bussmann@csueastbay.edu (the Gaming Librarian) if you have any questions, recommendations, or want to donate games!

Over in the Old UU, there is a Game Zone, and they also have board games that you can check out. Email gamezone@csueastbay.edu if you have any questions regarding their games.

As a member of the Cal State East Bay community with an office on the Hayward campus, I acknowledge that I am a guest on the unceded land of the First People of this region, the present-day Muwekma Ohlone Tribe of the San Francisco Bay Area (formerly Verona Band of Alameda County).
