 ====== Security Network ======
+The CERL security working group exists to help member libraries enhance the security of their culturally important heritage collections
-Following a spate of serious trans-border thefts from major European libraries, a Conference on Library Security Management was held under the auspices of LIBER in the Royal Library, Copenhagen, in May 2002, which formulated and endorsed The Copenhagen Principles (14 May 2002 / see below).
-With the support of the LIBER Executive Board, the Royal Library, Copenhagen, set up the LIBER Security Network in December 2002. From January 2013 the Security Network is hosted by CERL.
-Libraries and Archives may join the Security Network, and participate in the working group and the Security Network conferences. Each institution may nominate one member of staff (typically the Head of Security or equivalent) to participate in the Security Network mailing list. This mailing list is a secure environment for the exchange of confidential information regarding incidents of criminal activity witnessed in member institutions.
+===== Remit ======
+  * To coordinate information about on-going security issues of relevance for collections within the scope of CERL, through the CERL Library Security Network and through other appropriate channels
+  * To monitor and disseminate information on emerging methods and technologies in library crime prevention and detection
+  * To identify emerging areas of vulnerability or concern
+  * To coordinate access to important documents on legislation, policy and practice relating to collection security
+  * To provide guidance on building robust collection security policy and practice relating to threats to collections
+  * To organise events for information exchange, as well as skills development
+  * To serve as an interface with security networks in related sectors
+  *
+The CERL Working Group on security focuses on threats posed to collections by criminal activity, such as theft, wilful destruction, or by the adulteration of collection. Other physical threats to collections, such as fire, earthquakes, terrorism or flooding are only within the group’s remit in so far as they have an impact on the collections’ vulnerability to criminal depredation.
+Membership of the Working Group is restricted to CERL members, on nomination by the member library, but the Security Working Group conferences and workshops are normally open to all.
