Introduction

The Global Leader in Library Materials Flow Management

3M pioneered the concept of electronic protection of library materials more than 25 years ago. We are still leading the way.

Today, thousands of libraries around the world use the 3Mt Library Security System to protect their valuable collections. In fact, more libraries trust 3M than all other library security systems combined.

What this means to you

This manual explains how your 3M Library Security System operates. By becoming familiar with the information this manual contains, you and your staff will derive the maximum benefits from your system. But do not hesitate to contact us if you have questions.

From the best-trained field service organization, to our technical service group and customer support staff, we are committed to providing you with the support you require to ensure your complete satisfaction.

People who remove materials from libraries without authorization are much like your average patron. Library materials are usually placed within book bags, briefcases or concealed under clothing. 3M detection systems have been designed to detect the unauthorized removal of materials concealed in this manner. While a 100% electronic net does not exist, the 3M system provides effective protection and significant reduction in the loss of library materials.

With a little attention and care, your 3M system should provide you with many years of service and help to protect your library against thousands of dollars in losses.
