The myriad of free services provided by a library is why they hang out at libraries. Not that it doesn't happen but I doubt the homeless are checking out books to fill their spare time.
Public bathroom, wifi, escape from the heat or cold, nice people, business resources, etc are all benefits of the public library. All that stuff can be done in a regular office building or community center and no need to burden the library with more work.
