FIRE DRILL PROCEDURES

Due to the fact that the Franklin Branch of the Warren County Library is located in a school building, we must adhere to school fire drill policies.
When you hear the alarm you must leave the building immediately, taking your valuables with you. Walk across the parking lot to the grassy area. Stay with the library staff and remain quiet so we can listen for further instruction.
If you are driving into the library and see that a fire drill is in progress do not enter the parking lot. Pull to the side of the driveway and put on your four-way flashers. If you are in the parking lot already, PLEASE, DO NOT MOVE YOUR CAR.
Thank you for your cooperation!
