I just went there and tried it. I do use that section of Lincoln from the trail to the library. I don’t see the point. It makes people coming in or out of those driveways have to cross four things. The sidewalk, two bike lanes and the parking lane. As demonstrated when I was leaving the library. I was coming out their driveway and wanting to head east. A parking guy wanted to come in. We looked at each other for a while then I waved him on. Clumsy and a waste of paint. That’s what I think.
I did some research and found this on the city’s site:

Have a look if you are interested. As is usual with bike projects they are touting their outreach in the planning process. There was a meeting last October where this was decided. Never heard about it. Next Thursday is Bike to work day and the city will be hosting a “refreshment station” on the Lincoln ave side of the library from 7-9am. You are invited to provide feedback at that time. Enjoy.
