How can library patron information be used in a combined municipal/school library?
• Some libraries are run by staff from more than one organization, for example, from the town and school board. • If the library is operated as a “common program,” section 40(1)(i) permits the sharing of personal information of library patrons between staff of the different organizations. • The disclosure of personal information is permitted where it is necessary for the delivery of a common or integrated program or service and also where necessary for the employees to carry out their duties.
