[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Why? Please explain the justification for a ban on sleeping (or the appearance of sleeping!) in public libraries.[/quote] To ensure appropriate use of the library, which is reading and using information sources. Not sleeping or other activities of daily living, like bathing, eating, or doing drugs. [/quote] So if I'm sitting there, [b]reading a book [/b]while waiting for my kid to finish her dance class next door, and I droop off for a quick nap, then the librarians should throw me out? Because that's an inappropriate use of the library? How about if I'm sitting there playing Candy Crush on my phone while waiting for my kid to finish her dance class next door. Is that an inappropriate use of the library, since I'm neither reading nor using information sources?[/quote] By your account, you would be using the library appropriately. Perhaps a librarian would rouse you and offer a more exciting book?[/quote]
