Hi
Out of curiosity, what have you done in cases where someone has neither a passport or driving licence - what alternatives have you requested?
Best wished

Subject: Verification of readers
Hello
Just trying to find out what is common practice regarding verifying the identities of readers for issuing of readers tickets.
Currently we require a valid passport or driving licence, and make a note of the document number on the reader application form. I am trying to cut down on the collection and retention of personal details where possible, and have questioned if we actually need to make a note of these numbers or not, or if it is enough to just see the documents at the point of registration.
It would be helpful to know what other institutions do (particular in the museum sector) as I am not sure if we are just doing this 'because it has always been done this way'!
Many thanks
Penny
