As our income targets increase we are reviewing procedures for taking cash
from libraries to the bank. We have a Securicor service for the Town Centre
Library, but to date in small and medium sized libraries library staff take
the cash to the bank within set guidelines.
We are considering the costs and risks of this method versus other
alternatives e.g. arranging collection of cash via a safe on the library
service courier route or via a special courier route, using security
companies in marked vehicles and using security companies in unmarked
vehicles. I would be grateful to know how other authorities manage this
process for small and medium sized libraries and any recommendations from
your experiences in this area.
Many thanks,
