So, today in the library ...
Patron: Do you have a pack of cards?
Librarian: We have books on playing cards, we have books on card rules, we have books on people who play cards, we have books on other indoor games, we have books on gambling and gambling addiction; I can direct you to websites where you can play online card games from home - not here though because they are blocked by the filters; I can give you cardboard and colouring media so you can make your own pack of cards.
Patron: Do you have any games?
Librarian: We have books on many types of games; we have fiction with stories about people playing games; we have access to the websites for organisations that control games; have you ever thought of making up your own game?
Patron: Do you know anywhere here (at the school) where I could get a game?
Librarian: Sigh. Try the games room.
