Birmingham Public Library Chosen As Community Partnership Location

The Birmingham Public Library and MAX Transit have been chosen as "Community Partnership Locations" that Birmingham police officers will visit during their patrol shifts. Pam Lyons, Interim Director of the Birmingham Public Library, stated that the library is pleased to be included as a community partner with the Birmingham Police Department and other organizations.

Officers will have an opportunity to complete police reports and use the library's computers and fax machines, if needed. It is a positive throwback to the days of the beat cop, where officers will have an opportunity to develop a relationship with neighborhood residents.
