How would you define "living?"  I'd like to know, for the sake of  those out 
there who have many folks taking up space in their libraries, blankets  and 
all.  And why would it hurt anybody's feelings to have him "living" or  "not 
living" there?  Does it seem to damage the prestige of the  library?  I ask this 
because, a few years ago, I noticed that college  librarians seemed to express 
a strong distaste for the public library milieu,  based in part on the 
presence of homeless people in the public libraries.
