Libraries and Surveillance Cameras

As the hardware needed to set up and install a surveillance camera gets cheaper and the fear of crime goes up, more cameras are found in more places, including your public library.

The Boston Globe has a story on security cameras in general and their use in public spaces like schools and libraries. However, I found this quote troubling:

Kathleen O’Doherty, director of the Woburn Public Library, will not say on record whether that facility has cameras.
