This quiet room is little known, even among library goers. Perhaps intended as a venue for public education events, it has gone unused for years. A select few frequenters of the metropolitan library system know that this room exists, the entrance is obscure, on the second floor of the library in the stairwell next to the restrooms. The room number and label have long since fallen off. Those who do know about it find themselves with complete privacy, and can freely discuss their reading with colleagues, without risk of others listening in or being offended.
