Hi Jessica, You should definitely publish policies that prohibit sleeping and also behavior that detracts from the experience of other patrons or makes them uncomfortable. Unless one of those humans is a baby, then that observed behavior is inappropriate by most standards.

Not entirely sure what if anything I can/should do about this. We don't have a policy against sleeping in the library, but these chairs are meant to be occupied by one person--not two full-size adults. And I also have some kids in the library--not entirely sure this falls under PDA, but it definitely raised my eyebrow. Any advice? I don't want to be rude or insensitive, but I also don't want the furniture damaged and potential liability if the chair collapse or break under them. Nor do I want pictures showing up on social media about "what I saw at the library." Thanks! Jessica T.A.
