[CASL-L] Question on volunteers

Hi all - It is my opinion that it does violate privacy. I struggled with
this in the past when parents were in the library helping children check
out books. I had to think carefully about who wouldn't go into the world
and share about what Johnny had just checked out.

As we've started having volunteers again, I've been leaning toward having
them do other projects such as reorganizing a section, shelving books,
helping to process books, things like that.

Just my 2 cents.

Jenny
