Mad Lib

Swung by the local library yesterday and discovered that there's now a little cafe on the lower level. They're selling dollar coffees in the young adult section. Apparently, they're allowing, nay, encouraging drinks in the library. Now, when I was young, people drank coffees in cafes and read books in libraries. I mean, the very cornerstones of the library are no food, no drink, and free books (with no late fees if you can manage. That's very likely the best and only desirable characteristic of this town: no library late fees). What satisfaction am I supposed to derive from sneaking food into the library if they profit from this practice? What's next, charging for books? Outdoor voices? Is nothing sacred!?
