Crazy Library Customer

A story from Stephanie about a crazy lady who came in a year or two ago. More stories as they become available.




In reference to a couple comments I have had on the nature of this video: One of the great things about Libraries, and there are many, is that anyone can come and use the Library. Libraries get the whole of society including the homeless, mentally ill, socially tactless, and generally clueless. They are all welcome. But, sometimes, bizarre and inappropriate behavior is part of the package. This incident occurred in the center of the Library in front of staff and several customers.

Remembering this incident is not intended to belittle the lady but to laugh about the situation and the whole event. My intent was not to mock a someone with a mental illness. The customer is entirely welcome to return and use the Library.

I thought this was sort of a normal library customer.

Now I don't feel so bad about pestering the library staff.
