Dear Colleagues, I wonder if you have any policies that limit patrons living in group homes that differ in any way you treat general patrons. We have a group home who's residents come together to our library frequently to check out DVDs. We have a policy that limits 5 DVDs per Family. It's been suggested that we limit group home residents and treat them like a "family" because they share a household. I believe that they should be viewed as individuals and treated individually. Has any of this come up in your day to day considerations. Sincerely, Jaema -- Jaema Berman Director Addison Twp. Public Library 1400 Rochester Rd.
