I'm working on a forthcoming Infopeople webcast, Patron Policies and Latchkey Children Update
If you have items you think I should discuss, please comment. The description is:
Does your library issue rules for patron behavior, i.e. odor, harassment, bare feet? Do you have a policy on young children unattended in the library? What types of rules are (and are not!) likely to be legally enforceable? This webcast analyzes lawsuits against libraries, and pulls together a legal framework to guide you in writing, revising and enforcing policies.
Webcast: July 19, 2007
Time: 12pm-1pm
Speaker: Mary Minow
I think a library in Maplewood, NJ had serious problems caused by afterschool teens and even closed for a few hours. And regarding odor, perhaps find out what Morristown, NJ has done in the wake of the Kreimer case that went to the SCOTUS.
