LIBS 677: Knowledge Organization and Information Access

A LibGuide designed to provide an academic-leaning introduction to a very unconventional topic, Japanese role-playing (video) games. Of all the things I could have made a pathfinder for, this was the one that I felt I knew the most about to condense into something accessible—which, given the plainly missing page, wasn't exactly the case. Video games as a medium are pathologically deprived of a sense of history outside of what's manufactured to be the latest and greatest, so I think any attempt in this regard is still a worthwhile one.
