Games will be available on reading tables on the first floor. The free event repeats on the first Tuesday of each month.

Rock Island Library is now also offering a Retro Gamers Club on the second Thursday of each month for adults. The introduction to retro video gaming, which are games from the 1980s and 1990s, is Sept. 14, from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm, in the Downtown Library's second-floor Community Room.
