What happened after the library opened the evening study room?
When the town library opened an evening study room, attendance doubled within a month. Students said they preferred it to studying at home, where noise and chores often interrupted them. The librarian, however, pointed out that the room has only twenty desks, so latecomers are turned away. She has asked the council for funds to open a second room.
