Abstract : Although libraries are often considered as oases of quiet and decorum by the general public, they have their share of security problem. Academic libraries are not always safe and secure places and they are facing a wide variety of security concerns which includes the theft and mutilation of library materials. Violence and property crime can and do occur. Theft of library material is an ancient problem. The looting of great library of Alexandria by soldiers of the prophet in the seventh century is the first recorded example. The result of a number of library studies reported that a majority of academic libraries across the globe are having problems with security. However, it is the duty of any academic library to keep the library building, shelves and stacks open and free without losing items to make available to the readers.
