This letter is in response to the RH Line, "Bad day at the library."

Sorry to read about someone hitting your car at the library, and then leaving without a note. You also talked about the inconsiderate person on their cell phone for 20 minutes. I use the library several times a week, and the cell phone users have been a major complaint of mine, also.

Before the remodeling, there was a sign entering the library to turn off your cell phone. When I wrote the director, she wrote stating that there had been a policy change, in essence to keep up with the changing times. Why?

The library used to be a haven of tranquility and solitude, a place for studying and reading. People were reprimanded if they talked louder than a low whisper. Now, the policy has been changed to cater to these insensitive, self-serving people who do not care about others.

Our fabulous library is now the mecca for the loud, rude and inconsiderate minority in our populace. Changing policies for the minority is not changing to "keep us with the times;" it is mere heresy.
