Academic gaming librarian

Found via Tame the Web:

McMaster University Library in California has appointed an Immersive Learning (Gaming) Librarian. To quote:

Shawn’s primary responsibility will be for exploring, creating, supporting and promoting library resources through gaming and virtual worlds.

I find it on one hand astonishing and on the other extremely reassuring that gaming is finally getting more acceptance in the mainstream.

Edit: As anyone who can read can tell, McMaster is in Hamilton, Ontario (Canada). Shame on me.
