A missing child is a serious issue and should be addressed quickly and decisively by staff. For the safety of all children who visit Glen Ellyn Public Library, the library has instituted Code Adam Procedures.
Glen Ellyn Public Library staff are trained in Code Adam Procedures, which aim to reunite a lost child with their parent or caregiver and/or notify police of a possible abduction as quickly as possible.
Code Adam can also be used for adults who may become disoriented and need staff intervention to be reunited with their caregiver.
