Hi all,
This was meant to be posted last week but for some reason didn’t show up on the blog. Given that there was another security incident last night, I thought I would try to post it again.
————————————————————————————————————————————–
There was a small incident last Friday where I had to call Campus Security to deal with a person with mental health issues who was being a bit disruptive. A refresher on safety training will take place in the near future, but the incident has prompted me to post a brief reminder to the blog, particularly for the GAAs who work alone in the evenings, regarding important numbers and tips. Please do not hesitate to make any comments or corrections.
1. Steve Peets (604) 680-9309 is often in the library to deal with security issues.
2. If Steve Peets is unavailable, call UBC Patrol/Campus Security at 2-2222 who will notify any security officer in the building or the vicinity. Alternatively you may call 911.
3. Safewalk: If you are leaving the building at night and do not feel comfortable walking alone, please call AMS Safewalk at 604-822-5355 or the Direct Line Phone on the 3rd floor of Koerner Library by the elevator. For more information, please visit http://www.ams.ubc.ca/safewalk
If, for any reason, you are on the desk and feel unsafe, do not hesitate to leave the desk and come into the office.
For additional Safety Tips, please consult the yellow handout in the blotter on the Reference Desk or the red folder labeled “Emergency Procedures”, which is located on the first shelf on the desk with the room bookings sheets, to the left of the locked cupboard.
