Hi Adam,
I did a search of public libraries and found 39 reports. However, it will take me 3 hours to go through each individual report to see if there are any complaints regarding books, materials or events at a library.
As for the schools I located 3,376 records just for Imperial Pkwy. I have not looked further to see how many reports were generated for this location. Due to this being a school majority of these reports may be regarding a disruption in class or possessing a firearm on school campus. Again, I won't know unless I pull each report and review it.
Please let me know how you would like to proceed with this request.
Thank You,

From: Adam Steinbaugh

Hello --

Is there a way to generate a list of reports to see what the reported subject matter was? That may allow me to narrow it down or decide against asking for any of them.

Thanks again,

Hi Adam,
We have no way to search by specific keywords when it comes to reports or booking sheets. Each individual report or booking sheet must be pulled and read through.
Thanks,

From: Adam Steinbaugh

Understood. I’ll withdraw this request.

Thanks again!
