Affection, Public displays of
If you happen upon a couple engaged in sexual activity in the library, always allow them a few minutes to 'finish up' before escorting them from the premises. This will also allow you, the librarian, some time to quickly assemble some suggested readings, including a collection of love poetry, the Kama Sutra, and an illustrated color atlas of sexually transmitted diseases.

PDA, or PDE?
PDA is okay.
Public Displays of Exhibitionism (is that a bit redundant?) are excessive.
What if it's masturbatory phone sex? on the patron's mobile phone?
I think as long as they are not using the reference desk phone, it is ok to let them finish up. If they are on the reference desk phone, you may be missing important calls.
"This will also allow you, the librarian, some time to quickly assemble some suggested readings, including a collection of love poetry, the Kama Sutra, and an illustrated color atlas of sexually transmitted diseases." And a moist towelette.
I remember when one of the employees who was retiring had 20+ years under her belt at the library. At her retirement party, someone asked her what was most memorable.
She said "the number of children who might be named William S Carlson Memorial Library in honor of where they were conceived"!
