Rowdy kids egg on library users/staff

Rochelle Hartman writes “It’s
the Wild One in libraryland. At the Canton Library, MS, pre-teen
and teen kids have been terrorizing library staff and users with
verbal abuse, egg-throwing and sexual harrassment, just to name
a few. Even the hired security firm booked after only a month.
There’s more at the Clarion Ledger. There’s a little blurb here
at Library Journal, too.


I contribute this, in sympathy with the Canton library staff, having
witnessed a group of a dozen unattended children, ages 3-13,
surrounding our security guard and another librarian, shouting
“kiss my ass,” and wishing “molotov cocktails” on our facility. It was
a pretty alarming sight. “
