Subject: [Michlib-l] Active Shooter Response Procedures

Dear Michigan Libraries -

Do any libraries out there have a procedure for an active shooter situation that you would be willing to share? Or do you have any advice or information for creating one that you'd be willing to share? Sharing can be done off-list.

Many thanks,
