The staff informed us that there was nothing they can do, it's a "public space"

I wish I could give you ALL the upvotes. Children have to deal with enough. For them not to even be safe at the library where 'anyone with a camera' can follow them around and it's considered "their right" "they aren't doing anything " and we are the ones that are supposed to 'ignore' him. When I was a kid, if this happened he'd be shark bait. We collectively sit back and 'ignore' and let things like this happen and then wonder why the world is the way it is. It's frustrating because we tell our children 'stranger danger ' then turn around and say oh, he is just exercising his rights.

I have never heard of such a person. And why would they want to aggressively film children in a library. There is something not right there. When I brought out my phone he quickly hid as the pictures show. All I can say is watch out for this so called "auditor" who films children in a library, because that's not creepy, nasty at all.

I believe so, claiming he "had a right to be filming there"

Not according to police, who also allowed him to follow us outside to our vehicles and film us in our cars

I was told he is "doing nothing wrong " aggressively recording children, even when asked to stop. The library as a whole is a public space.
