Here come the sniff police


Patrons of the Schaumburg Township District Library have never been allowed to bring in the noise. Now they can't bring in the funk.



The library recently added "offensive bodily odors" to its list of prohibitions, joining more traditional no-nos such as running, rowdiness or toting an uncovered beverage.



...And while the policy stemmed from complaints about an apparently homeless person, Sarnoff said it would apply just as much to an overuse of perfume as an underuse of soap.
