"We got really clear feed- back from the library that they are proud to play that role in the community, proud to be a space where all kinds of residents want to come to," she said. "But, they really needed more resources and more understanding of area of resources to be able to help folks who are coming here with par- ticular challenges, especially for folks facing homelessness." Josie Parker, director of the Ann Arbor District Library, said everyone is welcome in the library. However, she noted that if a per- son is a distraction to others due to impaired and involuntary behav- ior, help is required to ensure the library can maintain its status as a safe place for its customers. "When we have the numbers of persons in the library who are homeless that we had last year, the incidents of impairment and persons who are uncooperative with our staff about their behav- ior goes up," Parker said. "It's felt by everyone who's in the library at that point time. We're trying to mitigate that. In order to do that, we've reached out." As a response to the feedback, Callan said CSTS was willing to contribute their services to the library. "They were very eager to step up to figure out how they could be more helpful to the library to make sure they have folks more of a pres- ence there," Callan said. )anded MPow Parker said staff members from CSTS will be in the library more to work withi their clients and relieve some of the library's burden.
