To effectively report an event at the library, adhere to the following general steps:

1. Assess the Situation: Gain a clear understanding of the incident's nature and severity. Determine whether it demands immediate attention.

2. Emergency Situations: In cases of emergencies or urgent concerns, such as medical emergencies or security issues, promptly contact emergency services (911). 

3. Provide Details: When reporting the incident, offer concise and clear details. Include information such as the incident's location, time, and individuals involved or affected.

4. Follow Library Procedures: Adhere to any specific guidelines or protocols provided by library staff.

5. File a Written Report: Complete the incident reporting form with all relevant details. Ensure clarity in providing information and include your contact details for potential follow-up. For instance, if reporting a leaking sink, use the library's incident reporting form under "facilities." Specify details such as location, restroom type, and include room numbers from the building map behind the desk if available.

Remember to prioritize safety and follow the appropriate reporting channels. Seek guidance from a library supervisor if uncertain about the proper procedures.
