Service Dogs

This is a great article about the proliferation of "fake" service dogs. Please remember we can only ask two things:
Is the dog required because of disability?
What services is the dog trained to perform?

We cannot ask about the nature of the disability.

Emotional support animals don't count as service dogs under ADA. So poodles in purses don't need to be admitted to the library. The rule for service dogs is "four (paws) on the floor."

Hard to remember, I know, so just remember you can access this refresher information from our staff blog.
