Demand a ban on cellphone use. Take them at the door.
Limit computer use -- no games.
Make noisy students leave.
Ask clueless parents to control their toddlers.
An alternative plan would be to sell space in the library to Starbucks. The coffee area would have to have a separate entrance and have sound proof walls, but there would be access to computers, movies and magazines. This would allow the public to continue its undifferentiated and unmindful behaviors of constant talking, use their cellphones, Ipods and junk computer use, games, dating services, soft porn, etc. All of this can be done elsewhere.
The cafe would provide revenue for the library and allow readers and students -- those who will go to a university -- the quiet environment that is a library.
