That "research" has a very broad definition. I've watched many, many shows at the library, and while one needs to express a specific reason for watching a video (in my case, it's always been research for upcoming productions -- most of them legitimately), I've seen people of all ages sitting at the monitors, including people whose researching seemed spurious at best. (Side note: the staff is extremely friendly and accommodating, and anyone with an NYPL card -- which can be obtained downstairs) is eligible to watch the recordings. Behave appropriately and you'll be fine.
