Sports guy missed library tryst with fake teen

This story about a sports reporter getting busted for arranging to meet with a "teen" (i.e., police posing as a minor online) for sex has a library tangent:

"Goldman had made one earlier attempt, last August, to meet the girl at the Warren-Newport Public Library in Gurnee. Police were waiting but they never saw him."

I\’m wondering who suggested the library as a meeting place, the guy or the cops?
