Our Circ staff are very concerned about library materials theft and are even more concerned about our reserves materials walking out the door. How did the librarians and circ come to an agreement about this? Our current resolutions are that reserve items will be checked out to students so we will know who has it, but it doesn’t get returned another student who needs it won’t be able to access it. The other resolution is stating up front with faculty who place their materials on reserve that there is a possibility the item won’t be returned.

At North, with our move, we've done away with security gates.  Librarians' recommendation.

New question – how many of you have security gates and what brand?

The security alarm has quit working.  Our gates are 20 years old so we will probably need to replace they system.  I have read that security gates are not being used as consistently anymore, and Heath notes that they are looking at getting rid of theirs.

Thanks,

Erica

I am interested in this question as well. We are looking at getting rid of our security gates, but need to have a counter in place first.

Hi all,

The gate counter on our security gates quit working. The security still works thankfully.  What are you using for gate counters if not a security gate?

Thanks,

Erica
