"Policies and Training Empowers Staff and Management to Act"
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Library workers across Canada view library policy, training, and reporting as important interventions to prevent and address patron-perpetrated sexual harassment (PPSH). A nation-wide survey indicates that Canadian public libraries vary widely in their development and usage of PPSH policies, procedures, and training. While 40% of libraries surveyed have PPSH policies, 78% have patron codes of conduct and 74% have policies that address workplace violence, harassment & discrimination. Only 26% of participating libraries offer staff PPSH specific training. Of the 69% of participating libraries who had formal incident reporting processes, only 13% list sexual harassment as a reporting option. More positively, findings demonstrate a strong interest by participants to address PPSH in their workplaces. « Les politiques et la formation autorisent les employés et la direction à agir » : Résultats préliminaires des sondages portant sur les politiques et les procédures sur le harcèlement sexuel perpétré par les usagers (HSPU) RésuméLes employés de bibliothèque à travers le Canada voient les politiques de la bibliothèque, la formation et le signalement comme des interventions importantes pour prévenir et résourdre le harcèlement sexuel perpétré par les usagers (HSPU). Un sondage national indique que les bibliothèques publiques canadiennes varient beaucoup par rapport à leur développement et leur usage de politiques, de procédures et de formation HSPU. Bien que 40% des bibliothèques sondées ont des politiques HSPU, 78% ont des codes de conduite pour les usagers et 74% ont des politiques sur la violence au travail, le harcèlement et la discrimination. Seulement 26% des bibliothèques participantes offrent des formations spécifiques au HSPU. Du 69% des bibliothèques participantes qui ont un processus de signalement d'incident, seulement 13% comportent le harcèlement sexuel comme option lors du signalement. Sur une note plus positive, les résultats montrent un grand intérêt des participants à résoudre le HSPU dans leur milieu de travail. Mots-clésHarcèlement sexuel; Bibliothèques publiques; Politiques

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
