- I think we have a pretty good compromise in our paging system. We use bells
- which ring on all floors simultaneously. We use this system for closing - 15
- and again 5 minutes before lights out. We also use it to call in specific staff
- members from the stacks - Circ, Ref, security, custodial. The good part, of
- course, is that we can't make announcements with it, so must decline all
- requests to do so. We have also used it for tornado warnings and for the bomb
- threat (no one took this seriously) we had one fine spring morning after 5
- months of being snowbound.
