Subject: RE: BS: What would you do?
You say that the sites claimed NOT to be pornographic. If they really can claim that then the police will surely be unable to take any action. I think I would call them, however, and offer to identify to them the guy that was looking at the photos - more for their information than for any specific current action. I would then ensure that there was increased visibility of the library rules regarding "acceptable use". I would not ban the customer, but would keep a good eye on him in future & if it happened again then would tell him he was no longer welcome at the facility (what are the rules, can you actually ban someone & if so with what authority & under what rules?). What I would NOT do is to inform anyone else about the customer's actions - I think that could be dangerous & would be unfair. These things can get well out of hand.
