If a library is open only to registered students, then access=private is in order. I don't think access=customers is valid. If there is a restaurant that is open to the public, and they have a parking lot, and you can only park in it if you are going to the restaurant, then access=customers makes sense. A key point for access=customers is that anybody may choose to be a customer. If you can't decide to be a customer, that's what private means. Arguably, the most important things to do are: ensure that all open-to-public libraries are on the map ensure that rendering and search de-emphasizes access=private libraries _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
