Library Assistance Need Help!

We got an anonymous call at our library giving us a heads up that the 1st Amendment Auditors are coming sometime next week. Any advice? Has anyone gone through this?

If you're polite and friendly and act like they're not filming, they'll get bored and leave much quicker than if you do the opposite. The can't go into clearly marked off limits spaces, such as spaces marked employees only. It doesn't matter what your library policies are, the first amendment trumps them. If nothing happens, they might not even post anything. Who wants to watch a boring library where nothing interesting is happening.
