April 5 - 7 of this year, Level 2 of the Donnelley and Lee Library was transformed into "performance spaces" using "inventive and creative configurations" for activities such as shadow plays with screens. Davis Schneiderman, director of the the 2nd Annual Lake Forest Literary Festival, noted that 110 participants came from off-campus and were appropriately impressed with the ambience and technology of the Library's space, which reflected very positively on the College as a whole.

An exponentially larger event than was held last year, the footprint for this year's program increased at least four-fold, expanding from one room on the Lower Level of the Library last year, to four classrooms and hallways on the bright upper level. This occurred primarily because this year's event enfolded Notre Dame University's own second literary festival, &Now, which also seeks to "showcase contemporary conceptual art."
