Crime in an LA Library

Read an article about recent crimes and violence in Los Angeles, CA libraries.  http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-library25oct25,1,4325441.story?ctrack=1&cset=true

 Think about how you would respond if any of these situations happened in your library.

Do you have a good relationship with local authorities?

What signs should you look for to call for help before a situation escalates?

 How would your staff handle a patron asking to use the library as a refugee from others who want to attack him/her?
