You can disagree with the proposed law, but what you are talking about is what happens when librarians decide to break the law.
If someone willfully breaks a law, I'm not sure what you think the consequences
should be. That penalty isn't much different than the maximum penalty for other relatively minor misdemeanors. The penalty for a repeat offender that litters in Texas is up to a $2000 fine and 180 days in jail.
