We recently moved to the area and were in need of finding a library to study. We came upon the Schertz Library, which has pros and cons. It has plenty of study space and even study rooms(a bit small, 2 people max), but there appears to be a great deal of noise. You can hear the front desk help, patrons on cell phones, ringing cellphones, excessive talking, alarms going off, outside voice conversations within, patrons of all ages, who seem disconnected from the type of atmosphere expected within a library...quiet. I take it that use of the "inside voice" is not a requirement or consideration or necessary practice these days. How times have changed, but more noticeably the lack of respect for one another. Disappointed!!
