first, pray to God and have Him show you who to talk to and when and where. the library is usually someplace that is quiet, and maybe not the best spot, but if God has lead you to share at the library, then you should strike up a conversation. the Holy Spirit will guide you if this is God's will

You might want to read up on St. Francis of Assisi.
St. Francis was known to say, "Preach the Gospel at ALL times. When necessary, use words."
This means your every action should reflect your faith. When you look at people they should see the eyes of Christ, not your own.
Teresa of Avila was known to say: Christ has no body now but yours. No hands, no feet on earth but yours. Yours are the eyes through which He looks compassion on this world.
There IS such a thing as giving silent witness.

Don't do it. If you came up to me when I'm at the library I would be polite, but I would also be annoyed.
I would tell you very clearly to leave me alone, and to adhere to the please keep quite sign.

Sure, I've got advice: don't witness.

Leave them alone. If they're interested in your religion, they're in the perfect place to conduct the research on their own.

That's an inappropriate place to do it. Trust me. I should know.
