Procedures for Lane Public Library Staff
If someone walks into the Library and you notice that they have a weapon, follow these guidelines:
- Politely notify the person of the posted sign and the prohibition of carrying a weapon on the premises.
- Do not argue with the person over the law – just inform the person of the library’s policy.
- If the person refuses to leave or causes you to feel threatened, if your supervisor is on duty, notify them and they will call “911”. If he/she is not there, call “911” and immediately let the supervisor on duty know about your call. Please complete and submit an “incident/accident form” with the pertinent information.
You can find additional information about this law on the
Ohio Attorney General’s website
If you have any questions about the staff procedures, please talk with your supervisor.
