There are four steps in responding to an emergency in the library:
If you are in immediate personal danger, take care of yourself first: leave the area or find shelter. Help others only if it is safe to do so.
Use your senses to note the situation. What do you see, hear, smell, taste, feel? Note the location of the problem. Use your phone to take pictures or jot some notes down.
Depending on the urgency of the matter
and report your assessment ASAP.
Campus Security's number should be programmed in your cell phone.
If it is safe to do so, under the direction of library staff, prevent further damage. Examples include:
