Overview

This book employs a familiar vehicle in library literature - the case study - but in a departure from the expected, takes that time-honored genre into a new dimension. Bruce Shuman uses the conversational narrative as a vehicle for portraying 40 security and safety issues that may arise in libraries, disturbing or vexing patrons and library staff alike. This approach is designed to make reading about library security not just informative but also interesting and fun. The case studies are accompanied by discussion questions, vividly dramatized to help readers prepare for similar challenges, should they occur in their workplaces.
