[Michlib-l] Security cameras

[Reed, Nyama]

Hello Everyone,

We are considering adding security cameras to our main lobby. If you have cameras, can you give me some feedback?


  1.  What brand do you use?
  2.  Are the pictures good enough quality to get a decent picture of someone?
  3.  Are the files saved to the library server and then police have to request a big (potentially a warrant) when needed?
  4.  Or do the files save directly to the police department?
  5.  What instances have cameras helped you with?
  6.  What, if any, negative consequences have you experienced? ex. concerns about privacy?

Have a wonderful day,
Nyama
