Have you ever encountered someone holding a seat for someone else? Is this uncivilized behavior?

Yes dear, I think this is an uncivilized behavior. Whether it is in a library or other places, occupying seats is an uncivilized behavior. Many libraries are expressly prohibited. For example, some libraries have proposed that in order to ensure that readers have equal rights to use the library, make full use of library resources, and create a good learning environment, the library will carry out clearing and occupying seats and prohibit readers from monopolizing public spaces in the library in any form. ***resource. Readers are kindly requested to consciously "walk away from the book" and not to occupy seats in any form or at any time. The library is responsible for cleaning and disposing of items occupying seats.

I have also encountered this kind of seat-occupying behavior. The peak period of seat-occupying basically occurs:

In the beginning and middle of the semester, there should be a relatively stable flow of people and seat-occupying phenomena. It exists, but it's not serious, and you can find an empty seat relatively easily

In the middle and late semester, and before the CET-4 and CET-6 exams, there is a peak flow of people. Seat occupancy is common and serious. If you go late, there is almost no place to sit. (The duration is not long, no more than a month)

As soon as I entered the library, it was packed with people. There was no place. It was hard to find a place. There was a book on it and no one was there. It was normal. If No one said anything, we sat down directly. The most annoying thing was that the people next to us would say that there was someone here. The main thing was that we waited for a long time and didn't see anyone, so we were very angry!

Although it is expressly prohibited, these phenomena still occur and the grasp is not strict enough. Here are some suggestions:

Issue reservation cards. One reservation card for each seat, divided into front and back. There are two sides, with a form on the front including appointment time and name. Reservation time: The self-study time selected by the student who occupies a seat will take effect immediately after filling it in. The right to use this seat during this period belongs to this student, on a first-come, first-served basis; at any time other than the reservation time, other students can Continue to use; if the reservation time is not reached for 20 minutes, it will be deemed to be abandoned and other students can regain the right to use it.

Its advantages are:

1. Improved usage efficiency outside of appointment time.

2. The reservation time can serve as a reminder and restriction for seat occupiers, reducing the situation where seats are occupied but no one is using them.

3. It can improve students’ learning efficiency (the time limit allows students to concentrate).

In general, a good social environment still requires everyone to consciously abide by it. Civilized behavior needs to start from oneself and be strict with self-interest. University leaders should also pay attention to protect the rights and obligations of students and implement policies on the ground instead of just issuing warnings. Library administrators should often check and eliminate these bad behaviors and reduce uncivilized behaviors. Discipline requires everyone to maintain and abide by it in order to have a good style.
