W: Did you see the announcement about the library? I think it's a great idea, especially the 24/7 hours during finals. Last semester, I had to leave at midnight right when I was in the zone. M: I agree, but I'm not so sure about the quiet floor. I mean, we already have a quiet area on the third floor. W: That's true, but that area is always packed, and people still talk sometimes. A whole floor would give us more space and truly quiet. M: Okay, I see your point. And I guess the extra floor could also reduce the need to search for seats, which is a big time-waster. W: Exactly! Plus, having the library open all night means we can study according to our own schedules, not the library's. M: Right, that flexibility is key for reducing stress.
