[GERGE]

I am not talking about public performance. Weren't we talking about reading to children in a library, in a room for children or something like that?

This is not public performance. Reading to children in a mall is, but library isn't.

Also, Copyright Directive's Article 5 (May I ask a question here? Should I write Article 5 with capital 'a'?) says that exceptions are made for libraries, educational establishments or museums, or by archives, which are not for direct or indirect economic or commercial advantage (this directive is from 2001 by the way, UK should have implemented it, apparently didn't).
