The noise complaint is the one that resonated with me. My pet peeve is the phenomenon of libraries being converted into some kind of community center/day care centre. In my day, libraries were as quiet as tombs and the noise standard was enforced. Now library staff put out kids’ board games to play. Or tolerate grown adults having long cell phone conversations in the library. This is not Starbucks; get out. Even noise canceling headphones isn’t enough.
