how obnoxious would a non screaming 2 yr old have to be before it would be appropriate for a librarian to come give them a talking to, even as their mom is right there hushing them? Not in the kid's room admittedly, but in the movie section? Yelling? speaking at a normal volume instead of whispering? maybe a tad louder?

actually many libraries are moving away from being quiet zones.

I could see that if they have reading rooms. If not, that would kinda suck. I used to love ditching class and going to the library to read all day. Wow...I'm such a dork.

honestly, I think that'd be nice. I mean, big research libraries, sure, special reading rooms, sure, but the public library shouldn't need to be silent as the grave. it's a living community space and I think it'd be nice to treat it as such.
