Is Sherry Jacobson whining or what in her DMN column this morning about her 22-year-old son being busted at the downtown library for eating a banana in the stairwell? The rules, including no eating inside the library, are posted and are there for an obvious good reason. Why didn't young Jacobson simply go outside or to the basement bench to eat? That said, Jacobson raises a good question about the city's lack of follow-through on putting a snack bar inside the library with places to sit and eat. That seems like a reasonable solution. And, we have to hope that the planned new shelter for the homeless will alleviate some of the problems created by the street residents around the downtown library.
