SINGAPORE: The library is no longer just a place to read as one can now expect to have more fun there apart from thumbing through books.

The Jurong Regional Library recently added video games into its stable of offerings, in a bid to draw young readers and their parents to the library.

It hopes that library users will bond with their family members and other users through video gaming.
