Hi Trent, I'm the youth librarian at ELPL and was wondering if you could direct me to the staff that run D&D sessions for CADL? We have some ELPL community members interested in playing but haven't had experience running a library game. Thanks, Gillian Streeter, Youth Services Librarian East Lansing Public Library gstreet(a)cityofeastlansing.com<mailto:gstreet@cityofeastlansing.com> 517-319-6840 (office)
