The libraries I've known (even the most modern ones) have always had a separate--and totally sequestered--children's room, in which the little monsters can scream their lungs out if they want and the adults next door can read in peace.
The public library here in Ashburn is so silent that I hate to use the computers, because the keystrokes are so loud!

Tough day at the office today .. was saddened by the death of Chester Bennington
Yesterday we noticed a neighbour coming back from a fuenral & wasn't sure what was going on Mrs Sw suspected they may have lost a child so this evening we pop over just to make sure thier ok
It turns out the worst fear confirmed they lost a daughter & i just offered my help at any given time doing anything they ask (This lady & her husband were there for us when my mum was going through treatment for cancer) i didn't know what to say i just couldn't believe what i was hearing it was so so heartbreaking as her daughter was disabled & my neighbours i would rate as the best parents on earth they both live for thier children
I feel weird and when i heard the news i just felt like i was dropped in the middle of the ocean i gave her a hug & Mrs Sw gave the husband a hug both looked completely shattered & in a undescribable heartache i didn't make Smalltalk but let them know im there 24/7 and gave them my word on it
So yeah not an easy day especially since my mother in law has had a cancer scare recently and it's looking more & more likely like Lymphoma but until a biopsy is performed we won't know
I've been doing my best by Mrs Sw helping out anyway i can & i am really grateful i can be there & really be there for the people i care about now compared to 5 years ago when i facedown knockout in my own vomit (sorry for being graphic)
I might pop back in later tonight we're binge watching Mrs Sw new fave show (Orange is the new black)

SW,
Sorry that you had to receive such bad news.
People like that are angels on this planet.
I hope pray that the cancer scare and test turns out to be good news.
It's tough to find the right words to say. But, hang in their my friend.

If it turns out that your MIL has lymphoma, please let me know. There is a new drug which greatly increases the survival rate. A friend's daughter has just completed her regimen with the new drug and her chance of survival is 93%. If I recall correctly, the name of the drug is Rituxin.
