Time was libraries were quiet, calm places. Today a small child was being over zealously ticked by doting grandfather, resulting in ear splitting shrieks. I moved away to check a title on the library catalogue, the computer being sited on a circular table at which sat a pimply youth. Headphones firmly in ears, he jigged up and down in his seat to the tinny sound of pop music. Whilst jigging he managed to sniff loudly. In the not so background the librarians were telling jokes and laughing loudly.
I don't want t return to the church like atmosphere of my childhood, but perhaps a little bit of hush might not go amiss.
A friend has asked librarians in her local library to be a bit quieter- sadly I'm not that brave.
