Confidentiality

Library patron records are confidential. Library staff will not divulge to others what patrons have checked out or who has a particular item checked out. This policy is in compliance with KSA 43-221.

We keep only the personally identifiable information that is absolutely necessary for the operation of the library B for linking or providing access to library materials, providing library services such as reference and interlibrary loan. We regularly purge, delete or shred information that is no longer necessary.

Only the Dean of Institutional Services is authorized to receive or comply with requests from law enforcement officers and to confer with college legal council before determining the proper response. No records will be released without a subpoena, warrant, court order or other investigatory document, issued by a court of competent jurisdiction that shows good cause and is in proper form.
