Drawing on more than twenty years as a library security manager, the author argues that a library can stay open and welcoming while still being safe. The book explains how to set clear expectations for patron behavior, when and how staff should step in when rules are broken, and how to approach a difficult visitor. It also covers ways to keep persistent troublemakers under control, including formal bans, and offers practical advice on documenting incidents and working with security personnel. The aim is a practical framework that helps library workers feel prepared and keeps everyone in the building comfortable and secure.
