Woohoo! Be nice to your librarian!

And shut up.

From the General Laws of Massachusetts:

PART IV. CRIMES, PUNISHMENTS AND PROCEEDINGS IN CRIMINAL CASES

TITLE I. CRIMES AND PUNISHMENTS

CHAPTER 272. CRIMES AGAINST CHASTITY, MORALITY, DECENCY AND GOOD ORDER

Chapter 272: Section 41. Disturbance of libraries

Section 41. Whoever wilfully disturbs persons assembled in a public library, or a reading room connected therewith, by making a noise or in any other manner during the time when such library or reading room is open to the public shall be punished as provided in the preceding section.


The previous section, which has to do with alcohol on school property, provides for "imprisonment for not more than thirty days or by a fine of not more than one hundred dollars, or both."
