Abstract
Security is a true concern for the modern and well-equipped libraries, and this situation worsens with the application of information technology virtually in all areas of library services. The older security threats in the library transform into modern cyber crime and network hazards. This chapter briefly describes two different sets of threats in modern libraries and the measures that can be adopted for prevention. The chapter provides some of these prevention measures.
