Not in any of the bathrooms at my work university library, which has a rather large population of non-traditional students, nor in any of the bathrooms I’ve been in at my school university library.
Fascinating responses.
I guess that I was thinking of public libraries because that’s what I visit all the time. But it’s interesting to see universities mentioned.
It’s also funny to see what posts get the most commentary….
In both our men’s and women’s washrooms here at our Central Library (public) there are change tables. Helpful for those dads who come for our baby programs.
You’ll find a changing table in all three of our public restrooms! Our six-year-old public library has a “family restroom” in addition to a men’s room and a women’s room.

Not in the ones in my system. Of course there isn’t one in the Women’s either.
I’m of the mind that Universities need to start looking at having changing tables in their libraries as well.

I work in a public library and we do not have changing tables in either the men’s or women’s restroom.

Our library’s unisex bathroom does have a changing table.

The libraries where I work are so small, there’s only one bathroom. So… yes.

Nope, none, nada… not in either the men’s or women’s restrooms.

nope, even though the subject has been discussed.
