04032024 - LIBRARY SECURITY SERVICES

Laramie County Library System (LCLS) has served the Laramie County community since 1886. During its 137-year history LCLS has striven to be sensitive and responsive to patrons’ needs. Its mission to “be a hub for engagement, literacy and learning, and lifelong curiosity and discovery” has driven the library system to continually innovate and expand. The downtown Cheyenne library sees the majority of use with nearly 30,000 people using the library each month. Increased usage by a growing population in the county has prompted the library to utilize contracted security services in order to provide a comfortable and welcoming environment for all visitors.

Security officers are expected to act with a consistent, high degree of professionalism to provide a safe and secure environment; an environment that is welcoming where library patrons are able to use library services freely, and where no one is allowed to interfere with another’s use of library services. The library is a place where all persons are to be treated with dignity and respect and welcomed to take advantage of the services that are offered.
