Re: [Michlib-l] Quiet Study Rooms
by Joyce Krom 05 Apr '22

05 Apr '22

It sounds like those patrons who are not using the quiet study rooms as intended need access to a space more suited to their activities. My library is across the street from a secondary complex and we have struggled with similar issues at times. After school, kids need to be able to blow off steam, be a little messy, and be a little loud. If your teen space won't accommodate that, maybe there is a meeting room they can use after school until the room rentals start up (usually evening?) I think it's fine to ask noisy patrons to vacate the quiet study areas if there is another place they can go. Ultimately, we want those kids in the library and it is up to us to find a way to provide what they need.
