Sondee Weiss and Amy Taylor will be attending the Security Meeting along with me. If you have additional concerns along these lines please let one of them or me know.
Also, I wanted to share Frederick's response to the suitcase issue. I think his advice about calling the security office when we see a suitcase violation should apply to all violations.
"I had a chance to speak with Captain Lawson concerning the rule on oversized and excessive items being brought into the building. As you know Central has a number of new security officer some that are temporary pending more permanent staffing being assigned. In our efforts to provide the best security possible we appreciate your support in this timely transition.
Since the old security desk is no longer at the front entrance, the security staff is having to make a judgment call as to the correct size and types of items. To help us address these types of situations, can you have the HPL staff members call the security office and ask for a supervisor to come to the floor where a person may be seated with the items in question. This will help expose security to these types of situations as well as address any individual perception as to the size of an item. In addition, I am asking Captain Lawson to document these situations on an incident report form, so we can compare and make any needed adjustments"

The security personnel need a tape measure and/or a notice at the doors stating what can enter the library. There is a man on 2 with a "huge" suitcase - much larger than 2 feet and is here every day with the same suitcase. We can't ask him to leave without showing him that the suitcase is more than 2 feet.
