@mcc seriously, if you're well off please leave the public library spaces & facilities for people who really need it.

At least fairly obvious in #nz It is likely that is the only heated shelter vulnerable get through the day and only place they have access to internet & even access to computing devices.

So rather than free loading & be smug it was paid by your taxes and "entitled" to use it, find somewhere else to spend time and just go to the library when you really need to use it.

I hate this suggestion. Seriously, keep using your library, whoever you are.
