Hi JC,
Our recently updated Emergency Procedures Manual is attached, which covers active shooter and lockdown scenarios.
Good luck,

Hi all, I would love to hear what your procedure is for an active shooter. We are a very small town and currently don't even have one in place. I am also wondering
if your library has any procedures or protocol for if/when your local school district goes on lockdown for any reason? The elementary/high school school is directly across the road from our building, so we are in close proximity.

is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.”
