LIBRARY STAFF PHOTOGRAPHY/VIDEOTAPING
KCPL Staff often takes pictures or shoots videos at library events to use in library publicity materials and
on the library website. The library reserves the right to document its services and the public’s use of the
library. Official representatives of the library may take photographs, videotape, or use other recording
devices within the library and at library-related events and activities for library purposes.
These photographs and video may be copied, displayed, published (including on any library web
presence), and telecast for such purposes as promotion, publicity, and news to inform the public about
the library.
If individuals do not wish us to use a picture or video of them or their child, they should tell a library
staff member prior to the event.
COMMERCIAL PHOTOGRAPHY/VIDEOTAPING
KCPL does not permit commercial photography or filming. Any exception requires the express written
permission from the Library Director. Community organizations holding scheduled events or meetings in
the library meeting rooms may arrange for their own photography or videotaping/recording of their
event. Such photography and videotaping are restricted to the space reserved by the group, and the
group is responsible for any necessary releases and permissions.
TERMINATION
Photography, videotaping, or use of other recording devices may not interfere with the provision of
library services. KCPL staff will terminate any photography, videotaping, or recording session that
appears to compromise public safety or security.
