Findings and Recommendations 3 findings

Evening security at branch libraries, particularly those libraries with two or fewer employees, is seriously lacking.

R1
The library staff should provide a more institutionalized method for a security system. The staffs at the libraries we visited have implemented their own, albeit informal, systems for their own security.
F2
The current procedure of relying on the staff to monitor Internet use is inadequate and time consuming for staff.

R2
A more positive, pro-active system for the monitoring of minors’ use of computers with Internet access should be implemented. Automated systems of monitoring computer time use are feasible to free the staff from these duties. Whenever possible adult computer use should be separate from the areas used by minors.
F3
County librarian salaries are the lowest of any professional classification in its system.
