And it's only a library. Even if it was an Embassy, I still don't think that it is necessary for them to keep my ID card whenever I go in there. Just check it, see if I'm a criminal, get my name registered - that's okay. But I don't feel right to let anyone keep my own ID card for hours. I'm a civilized person, I don't need watching. I'm not about to set the whole place on fire, or massacre the librarians, to be honest.
I see.
I guess you are right and it depends on the country. It is difficult for me to judge because I have a bit different background. I worked as a security officer. Checking cars entering a car park in big shopping mall in Israel. Opening boots, checking that the car doesn't sit too low without an apparent reason. Checking IDs if in doubt etc.
Silly silly....
