seem to thing that the stacks and reading areas of a (large) public library are meant to host loud conversations, multiple phone calls (with no attempt at all to speak quietly) and so many obnoxious social activities?
There is a big lobby on every floor of the Minneapolis Central library, a huge atrium, and a nice coffee shop in the building. USE THEM, for Celestia's sake!!!

I do have my earbuds in, and if I can't hear you, that's fine.
