4. You need to talk to the librarians, if you go back.
This is NOT a funny situation at all - no more than it would be if some young guy started pressuring a woman in the library for money. Do not feel embarassed about saying you do not know this girl or (politely) demanding that the library deal with her disruption.

I suspect the girl is scamming you, so that you feel obligated to give her things lest she embarass you further. But, even if she is sincerely lacking appropriate boundaries and believes what she says, she needs more help than you could provide.

Frankly, I would call CPS and say that there is an unsupervised young woman begging for money and food in the library.

Again. This behavior is just not okay. What kind of idiot asks for (let alone takes) rides from a stranger? (not that there is anything wrong with you. It's just the principle of it).
