Managers of Library Operations - December 2014

Ed distributed to the managers a Security Information Sheet with names and positions of MLS security officers which includes security suggestions for staff.  He shared the MLS has a new security officer, Tony Gracey who began his employment this week.  Tony is a retired Oklahoma City police officer who filled in at RE  about 15 years ago on a part time basis while still active on the police force.   He will occasionally show a visible presence in the libraries.

Ed briefly discussed security suggestions with the managers and invited them to contact the Security Department for assistance, questions, or with any issues concerning security staff as soon as possible.  He asked the managers to please complete Unusual Incident Reports in a timely manner and informed that security is working on trying to get the CCTV library cameras to record on a 12 day loop.  Staff are encouraged to always be aware of their surroundings; all staff have a responsibility regarding security at our libraries.

Managers of Library Operations - November 2014

Open Discussion
Follow-up (from October Meeting) – Kay Bauman

Paperbacks
Kay shared information regarding paperbacks becoming reservable.  She indicated that the original intent of the uncataloged paperback was to have a browsing collection inside of the library and there were fewer funds available to purchase them.  Additionally, many were gifts.  Carl X was unable to accommodate the uncataloged paperbacks so we now do minimum cataloging, Karen calls them ‘minicats’.  Following the original intent of the collection they are not reservable.
