5.1 Emergency Response

The Library has adopted an Emergency Response Plan (Appendix X) which outlines the procedures the Library will follow in response to a variety of situations.  In most situations, including severe weather, the Town Manager will determine whether to close the Library. However, when immediate action is required, library staff may initiate the appropriate response, following the Emergency Response Plan.  When an emergency response is initiated, the Library Director (or the designated Acting Director in the Library Director’s absence) will inform the Town Manager as soon as possible.

Initial Adoption Date: 8/11/2014
