It's terrific that they have done this for the gaming community.

The website seems to follow the design of major university libraries, meaning finding anything is impossible. I tried to look for a magazine they have, scanned, and I believed uploaded. No dice. Doubt I will be on there much.

Interesting, but it needs a bit more time in the oven and maybe a text guide for people who have never used an academic database before. They aren't great for general searches, much more set up to accommodate people who know exactly what they're looking for down to the font size. Then again, I could see some users setting up a search document for other users. It happens between research students and this is all largely research material at this point.

Edit: I also like that the physical library is literally just some guys second studio apartment.
