While we here at Notre Dame have yet to have a dance in our facility, we have sponsored "Game Night" during study times. See a copy of the reference department newsletter:

Kudos go to Sherri Jones, Leslie Morgan, and Felicia Smith here at Notre Dame for making it happen, and I think it will be happening sometime soon.
Just like the question, "What is the catalog?", the question "What is a library?" is apropos.
