So that people can read, research and study without being disturbed by other people.

Because people DO actually study, read, and write last-minute papers due in a hour.
Also, because a ton of old people hang out in libraries and don't really do much except break computers and spend hours using the copy machine.
Librarians don't really care about it being quiet...it's just kind of a taboo set by those old people!

I wish I lived where you are!! Ours are rowdy free babysitting dumping ground or loud teen hang outs. Wow, the peace and quiet to study.

because people cannot take other people so they make a place where nobody wants to see each other and everyone ends up there so they made it quiet so you wouldn't have to talk to one another.
so you can pretend to study while your mind wanders.
