Go at the Biblioteca de México

When Biblioteca de México La Ciudadela, one of the most iconic public libraries in México City, celebrated its 70th anniversary on November 26, go was part of the festivities. In addition to a go exhibition where the public could get a glimpse of what the game is about -- watch a video here  -- there was a children's tournament on December 4th, where 28 kids from 4 to 12 years old played on 9x9 boards in a four round tournament.

 A special thanks goes to Karla Consuegra, Subdirector of Information Services at Biblioteca de México, who has played a great role in supporting implementing go activities at the public library.
