Why is it that an institution as old and established as a library requires rule enforcement?
The rules are really simple:
Come visit reguarly
Stay quiet
No food or drink (unless you are bottle/breast/sippy cup fed)
Borrow stuff (for free)
Return it on time
If you are late returning stuff pay your fines
Computer use rules are also simple:
it's not your personal computer so dont act like it is. Please observe the following:
Once you use your time limit please get up and give someone else a turn
Don't hog all of the elbow room
Be considerate of your surroundings realizing that no one else is interested in your porn viewing habits.
You think these rules are silly just wait a minute. At times librarians have to enforce stuff that should be common sense:
No you can't park your BIKE in the library. Invest in a lock genius!
No you can't let your child scream uncontrolled because you "need" to check facebook. Of course we believe that you are looking for a job. Even still take that baby home.
No you can't bathe in the public bathrooms. You refuse to clean-up after yourself.
Ahh, public service. gotta love it.
