I had thought that the library was running an exit node, but no, all 
this is just over running a relay.

Heck, I'm running a relay myself. apt-get install tor

What I would not dare to do is run an exit node, even though doing so 
would be a public service. Too many three-letter-agencies.

They'd be crazy not to, sniffing all the way.
