Unattended Children
Henrico County Public Library is not responsible for unattended children.
The Library expects that children under ten will be accompanied at all times by their parent(s) or an adult responsible for them.
If there are unattended children, who are under thirteen, in the Library at closing who have no way to return to their homes or who are waiting for their parent(s) or an adult responsible to pick them up, Staff will try to contact the children's parents or guardian by telephone.
If the children's parents or guardian cannot be reached by phone, Staff will notify the police of an unattended child at the Library.
Library Staff will not provide transportation to library patrons, nor will staff be responsible for children after hours.
