[Publib] Borrowing Limits for Homeless

[T P]

We simply limit any patron without proof of address to 2 items at a time.  No embarrassment.  We just say, bring in a piece of mail, checkbook, car registration, etc.  pretty lax really, anything pre-printed, and the limit will be lifted.  We also suggest getting a card for each family member, so that each person can have 2.

I was curious as to why someone said they don't allow audio/visual materials to homeless.  Those items are generally less expensive than a book, sometimes considerably less.
