Es agradable leer a Scott Nicholson cosas como esta
It all started with chess. In 1854, the Mechanics' Institute Library in San Francisco added a room for a chess club to meet. The chess club that started meeting there still meets today, and this makes it the oldest continually running chess club in the United States!
I visited this library and chess club. Since I have studied games in libraries for years, I understood that I was stepping upon hallowed ground. I talked with the staff and helped them understand just how important their library and chess club room were in the history of gaming in libraries.
