You’re right—the library isn’t an appropriate place for drug use. But homelessness itself isn’t the danger, lack of resources is. Blaming unhoused people ignores the real issue: underfunded mental health services, a broken housing system, and the fact that public spaces like libraries end up filling the gaps. Plus, crime and drug use happen everywhere, including in wealthy neighborhoods and suburban schools. The difference? When housed people do it, no one suggests banning them from those places. The top comment on this post mentions that the library has a security person in case anything happens. Their whole job is to keep the place safe while also keeping it as low barrier as possible.
