Ids to use library computers

THE EDITOR: Please allow me a space in your column. I am a regular user of the national library and I would like to express disappointment and dissatisfaction with the treatment meted out to adults in the adult section of the library. They treat us as though we are children. After destroying all the computers downstairs in the young adult section of the library, they allow the youths to come upstairs in the adult section and they “make mas.” The youths were totally out of control which they couldn’t handle and now the adults have to feel the effect of this. Adult have to line up and produce ID cards to show that they are adults in order to use the computer. Without the ID card, you cannot use the computer.

They allow you 30 minutes on the computer, they monitor you and tell you to come off the computer whether your time is up or not. Why do we have to pay for all the wrong things that the younger ones did, it is not fair, not fair at all. The government put the library there for us, the public to use and instead they, the young adults abuse it. It is better that they tell us to pay to use the computers, than put us through this.  It is not fair, again I say. Maybe it is better to pay your money and use an internet cafe.
