Middle Township - What has happened to our libraries? Even in areas clearly designated for quiet reading or study, people make no effort to whisper or even lower their voice. They hold long conversations with their friends with no regard for anyone else. And don't jump to conclusions and think it's a bunch of noisy kids. The couple who held a continuous conversation since my arrival are from the generation of the "shushing" librarian. This while I tried desperately to concentrate on filling out one of those mind-numbing, online job applications.
