Most students will not go to extremes to sabotage their fellow classmates, but they might still (intentionally or otherwise) take campus library materials in unauthorized ways. Checkpoint Systems are designed to reduce inventory losses incurred by campus and university libraries.
Library Theft Prevention ensures the integrity of the library’s resources. By tagging books, equipment and reference materials with Library Theft Detection Systems, libraries can see the same reduction in losses that retailers will. Most libraries are not aware that through implementing Checkpoint Systems, some retailers have seen up to an 85 percent reduction in losses. Even if a library sees a fraction of that 85 percent, Checkpoint Systems easily pays for itself within a reasonable span of time.
As for the students, there is nothing more frustrating than being behind on a research paper or project, going to the library at the last possible minute and finding the materials needed are gone. It is one thing to have those references checked out by another student, it is completely another to have the materials missing inexplicably.
Those missing materials not only create more stress for the students, but they also take up valuable time from your employees and volunteers. Instead of doing other tasks, they must look through the stacks to see if it has been misplaced, search in the computer systems to see if they even carry the materials, or see if there is another error. Finally, after all hope for finding the materials has been abandoned, a reorder and restock must take place.

Would you want to go routing through a stinky, sticky bag of trash, every shift of every day, just to see if an employee was trying to hide merchandise in the trash bag? Probably not. I know that is not a task I would want as part of my job description, which is why it such an effective employee theft method of getting merchandise out of the store.
An employee who is trying to steal merchandise wants to find the path of least resistance. If the front doors are monitored by other employees, bag checks, cameras, or EAS alarms the employee will look to see if there is another way out. One of the ways they might stumble upon is during a trash run. The employee might notice that the back door is not monitored, alarmed, or checked. If they conceal their stolen merchandise inside of the trash bag, they might feel like they have found a way to circumvent your security protocols.
Once the bag is in a dumpster or a compactor they can go back to retrieve it at their leisure. That might be later at night after the store is closed and everyone has gone home, or it could be in an early morning hour before employees start to show up for the day.
An employee theft investigation may be warranted if you have an individual that seems a little too eager to take the trash out- especially if your back door is not monitored, or if the employee uses opaque instead of clear trash bags.

I have had to investigate all varieties of retail theft. What I have found is that some criminals figure out their on little niche in the word and figure out how to work the system to their advantage. One such example is an investigation I made into golf club theft from a local pro shop.
This particular criminal had either previously worked inside the golf club industry, or had done some very thorough research ahead of time. Perhaps he was just an avid golfer and stumbled across the process legitimately, but saw a wide open door for his scheme. Either way, this man was responsible for almost twenty thousand dollars in golf club theft.
The scheme went like this- A few specific brands of golf clubs will replace the shafts if they become damaged or otherwise broken. They do it for little to no fee, depending upon their local resources. Knowing this, our shoplifter would come into the pro shop and steal only the heads of the golf clubs.
The heads are much smaller, easily concealed in a pocket or a bag, and anyone looking will be less suspicious when they see the handle of the club still there.
After leaving the store, the shoplifter would then contact the vendor and have the rest of the club replaced. Even if there were a fee involved, it would be significantly less than the price of a four hundred dollar golf club. From there, the shoplifter would sell them off to various pawnshops for a tidy profit.
It took a little bit of time to figure out what was going on, and then how to stop him. In the end, this particular pro shop was almost run out of business from this repetitive golf club theft.

A grab and run theft is a tactic used by shoplifters who are looking for a big score. This is usually carried out by a group of thieves all acting together to bypass any clothing security measures you have in place. For them, time is of the essence- they must strike fast, and then disappear as quickly as possible.
You can usually expect to have at least one if not more than one person entering your store to physically grab the merchandise.
These grabbers will pick their targeted area- handbags, jeans, and specific designer or label, and grab as much as they can carry at one time.
The crew may or may not have another person acting as a lookout. The lookout’s main job is to let the rest of their crew know when the coast is clear to run out the door. As such, many times we see the grabbers lingering near the doors with piles of clothing waiting for the signal to go.
Lastly, you can expect at least one if not two people to stay outside. Their job is to have the get away car ready at the exit. If you see a car waiting by a door, you might want to make sure they are there for a good reason.
Grab and run shoplifting is about a big hit very quickly. Maintaining vigilance at doors and in departments can reduce the likelihood of a crew being successful.

Playing the stock market is riddled with risks- some are high with the promise of a great return, or great failure. Others are low risk with a steady expectation of gain, or they may turn out to be a dud and never fully rise to their potential. Just like with stocks, you should not completely judge a potential employee’s past behavior as a guarantee of future results. Pre employment screening is designed to give employers additional indicators of who might be a high or low risk, and how to act accordingly.
Some applicants with a clean history will end up stealing from you because they are suddenly faced with an unexpected financial debt. Others with a criminal past may have truly been rehabilitated, and are on the straight and narrow path now, never to falter again.
An employee background check creates a larger base line to make those decisions. By tracking a stock over a longer period of time, we can see just how consistent it has been allowing us to decide whether to invest or not. You wouldn’t pick a stock based off of the last year’s performance when you can see how it performed over the last five years. Why would you pick an employee based only off of the last year, when you can see further into their past?
Employee background checks help us to see the longer, and more complete history of a person, and not just what their recent results have been.
