Video Games at the Library
Gaming at the Library just got easier with the addition of Nintendo Switch at select branches. Starting at the Central Library, book time with the console using the Makerspace booking calendar.
Bookings can be made for two hours, and up to four (4) individuals can play together. You’ll need a Hamilton Public Library card and must be 14 years or older and/or accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Video Game Tournaments are also held across many of our branches, where children and teens can sign up for our various programming that showcases a particular four-player game. Compete against others to claim the title of champion in these one-hour sessions.
Programming can be found on our Events page for video games. Register your spot today to start playing.
Keep an eye out for more Nintendo Switch consoles coming to a branch near you!
