Hi, I work at a museum library, and sometimes employees from various departments expect 24/7 access to the library and archives. In our museum, the library and archives are housed in one room along with the work stations of several full time employees (all of whom are responsible for the collections in someway). If one has physical access to the room, they essentially have access to all of the collections. We try to keep the number of people who have keys to the room to a minimum. I would like to establish an official policy about who should have keys, and I would like to have a sense of best practices to appropriately push back those who think they should have unlimited unmonitored access. I was hoping some of you would share your basic policies on employee access if you work at a library or archive in a museum (or similar non-library organization). Thanks so much for your help!
