Operating the detection system

Check the patron count

Use the information in this section to check the patron counter, which keeps track of how many patrons have entered and how many patron have exited through all corridors of the detection system. It also keeps a total count.

• Check patron count information on the patron counter display located on one of the lattices.

– In and out arrows indicate direction, that is whether the count is for patrons entering or patrons exiting the library.

– An equal sign indicates the patron count total.

Note: reports the patron count.

Preliminary

Training your staff

A key element of any media loss prevention effort is a successful staff training program. Your system will be much more effective with the active cooperation and participation of your entire library staff. We recommend that you periodically conduct formal training sessions, including the following elements to help ensure its success.

• Reviewing the owner’s manual

• Practice tagging materials with 3M ™ RFID Tags

• Reviewing your library’s security policies

• Reviewing how to respond when the alarm sounds

• Using the system alarm log

• Addressing patron concerns

Preliminary

After reviewing this manual, your staff will benefit from actual hands-on experience with the detection system products they are expected to use. We suggest you start by demonstrating the proper techniques for each tagging procedure. You may wish to conduct the actual practice as follows:

1.

Make sure that all the other 3M Library Systems products are installed and functional.

2.

Let each staff member practice installing the tags on library items.

3.

Let each staff member practice securing and unsecuring materials.

Review of your library’s security policies

Before practicing how to respond to alarms, staff should be familiar with the library’s security policies as they relate to theft of materials. It is important that staff become familiar with state and local laws governing patron’s rights and responsibilities, and the response should be consistent for all patrons caught in an alarm.

To help staff stay informed of security measures, your policy should be in writing and kept with your training kit along with any other procedures you follow.

Note: It is particularly important for staff members to know what procedures the library follows when theft is suspected or when it is necessary to contact a local law enforcement agency.

A critical phase of staff training concerns the proper steps to take when the security system alarm sounds. The value of tact and courtesy when handling this delicate situation cannot be overemphasized. Your staff members should receive as much preparation as possible to make them feel comfortable. With the proper training, your staff will be more likely to effectively deal with patrons who activate the alarm.

Responding to alarms can be a sensitive situation but can also be handled confidently and effectively as long as your library has established procedures and your staff members are fully trained in following them.

What to do when the alarm sounds

Generally, remain calm and courteous. Don’t panic and don’t rush to assumptions about the person who triggered the alarm. It’s not possible to be immediately certain of the thoughts or motives of the person. Never accuse anyone of theft by word, by facial expression, or by tone of voice. In rare occasions, the alarm may have triggered falsely. In other cases, an item may not have been

© 3M 2010. All rights reserved.

Training your staff unsecured properly, or the person holding the item that caused the alarm may not even be aware it is in their possession. Always respond in a positive, nonthreatening manner.

Possible alarm scenarios

In simple terms, a patron might respond to a triggered alarm in either of three ways:

1.

The patron might stop in the corridor.

2.

The patron might be unaware they have caused the alarm, disregard it, and casually continue to exit.

3.

The patron might run for the exit.

Preliminary

After asking the patron to return to the counter, you might typically ask “Excuse me, did I forget to check out one of your items?” or

“Did you perhaps pick up one of the library’s books with your own things?” These are courteous questions and they don’t accuse the patron of theft. Be sure to smile and ask the questions in a friendly, nonthreatening manner.

Process and unsecure all items again. If you discover an item that hasn’t been properly checked out, never accuse the patron of stealing. Simply act as if the error was an oversight—it more than likely was—and you can resolve the situation easily in this manner.

If the patron is uncooperative or causes the alarm to sound again, follow the policy that your library has established for possible theft of materials.

Unwanted alarms

Your detection system is virtually free of false alarms. Occasionally your system may alarm and your staff may find that the patron does not have unauthorized library materials.

Unwanted alarms may be caused by tags on items carried into the library such as books from another library.

Unwanted alarms are generally infrequent and will vary depending on the patrons and the proximity of your library to facilities that are releasing items containing tags. Because it is not possible to distinguish between unwanted alarms and alarms with potential item loss, all responses to alarms must be consistent and follow your management policies. If patrons see no response to alarms, the system becomes less effective. When you decide that a tag on an item from outside your library caused an alarm, follow these steps.

1.

Explain the problem to the patron.

2.

Verify that all of the patron’s library materials are properly checked out.

3.

Allow the patron to exit the library.

Many patrons will learn from the experience and will not carry items that may cause alarms into the library.
