[Rachel Anna Bray]

Please see the responses below to my question: do you think a security gate is worth the money at your library?

Thoughts


Sarah Briggs


Milford HS


Have security system and turned off because gates going off because of cell phones and ipods.


3 staff members, 900 students, lots of foot traffic


Did inventory and didn't notice a change in lost books with gate off. Will continue to leave gate off.


Denise DeMello


King Philip MS, West Hartford


No security system.


900 students


Don't need security system.


Loretta Sullivan


Manchester HS


No security system.


1600 students, 5 staff members (at different times)


Security system not warm and inviting.


Jessica Wismar


Bethel HS


Yes.


300-500 student visits per day


On the fence. Security system sometimes a nuisance because students prank. Hard to tell who sets it off.


Barb Lyons


Wilton HS


Getting rid of.



Kids pranking, redesigning space and want entrance to be more appealing, want to spend the money in other ways.
