On the rare occasion that I am in a library, it is to study and do research, NOT just to read a book, I can do that at home. I can not fully concentrate when someone is talking nearby. Whispering...fine. Shuffling papers, fine. Talking on a cell phone? Not fine.
Talk all you want in the store...on the bus...in a restaurant. I might find it rude or uncouth, but I'm not going to get that upset about it. In a library...it's discourteous and uncalled for.
