5. Normal at private libraries. Not normal at public (like UCLA) libraries.
At NYU, the community allowed the library to be built only if the foyer area was open to all NYers. NYU broke that contract and put in a bank of ID scanners.

Private U's do it to protect their collections. The idea of a random ID check is fairly absurd though. At UCLA I think they do it to keep the homeless out. I'm sure they didn't think this kid was homeless.
