Z_ROC Aged Out Patron Types

Z_ROC Aged Out Patron Types

This patron type is set to automatically update each day, based upon the former student’s DOB.

Library staff should not set this patron type for any cards.

If a Z_ROC patron attempts to use the computer or check out any items, their card will not work.

If you encounter a Z_ROC patron, circ staff should:

-Search by DOB to see if the patron already has a juvenile or adult card on file

-If yes, then circ staff should update the borrower info on the current card

-If no, then circ staff should treat the patron as if it is a new card and ask for ID, fill out application, initial the policies, etc.

-After completion of the new physical card, circ staff may delete the Z-ROC card from the system

Unattended Child Policy

 From Security Blog Post:

Know the Unattended Child Policy.

                    Children 8 years of age or younger are to be “attended” by a parent or other responsible caretaker (16 years or older) during their entire visit to the library.

                    A child 8 years or younger who is attending library sponsored programs need not to be accompanied by a parent or caretaker during the program. However, the parent or caretaker is expected to remain somewhere in the library for the duration of the program and must be present at the doors of the program when it is over.                          

                    Children 9-11 years of age must have a parent or caretaker (16 years or older) somewhere in the library.

•     Only 11-17 year olds are allowed to hang out in the TEEN AREA. This is in effect during all operational hours. Noise volume is okay to rise in this area, but teens must follow library policies. Inappropriate behavior such as cursing or physical contact are not allowed. Teens must be respectful to staff and other patrons. Adult tutors cannot tutor teens in this area. If patrons complain about the noise level please explain that this area is provided for teens to gather and sometimes noise levels will rise. Assist the patron in finding a more suitable area to work.
