Abstract
The University of Wyoming Libraries recently completed a major expansion and renovation of the William Robertson Coe Library, the main library on the University of Wyoming campus. One of the goals of the project was to improve the security of the building, its contents, and its occupants. The library staff had minimal involvement in the design of the security suite that is now in place in the finished building, and so far it has been difficult to fully appreciate the features of the system. Issues preventing optimal use of the security system include hardware and software problems; lack of understanding of the features; and the lack of well-defined roles for library personnel, campus police, physical plant technicians, and other people involved in the implementation of the system. The current situation demonstrates the importance of defining the goals of the security system before engaging a consultant to recommend specific pieces of equipment and designate the locations of hardware.
