Unattended Children

The Blackwater Regional Library is not responsible for unattended children. It is the policy of the library that a parent, guardian or caregiver, age 16 or older, must accompany children under the age of 10 on the library premises, except during story time and/or library classes where a teacher is present.

Parents and guardians assume the responsibility for their children’s behavior in the library whether the child is accompanied or unaccompanied. Disruptive behavior will prompt corrective action from the staff.

If an unaccompanied child under the age of 10 is at the library, library staff may notify the police. Library staff are not permitted to drive children home, nor will staff be responsible for children after hours.
