Cell phone jammers in US librairies?

Elizabeth Armstrong for The Christian Science Monitor, writes about Troy Johnson, a librarian
in Omaha, e-mailing his fellow American librarians about the possible implementation of cell phone jammers.

"It is my understanding that it is illegal to use this device in the United States," Mr. Johnson writes. "I think it might be worthwhile to look at the regulatory structure to see what it would take to change the law. I think that on private property you should be allowed to jam cell phones ... to block calls within a contained area so that you do not have jamming in unintended areas."
