Many libraries are being targeted by First Amendment "auditors" who use their cell phones or other recording equipment to record their encounters with library employees in the library. In this session, you will learn about the legal protections for these constitutionally protected activities and hear best practices for dealing with an "auditor" if your library is targeted.
