Jail for Library Employee Who Embezzled Fines; New York Times, 6/20/12

Peter Applebome, New York Times; Jail for Library Employee Who Embezzled Fines:

"Mr. Force said the theft was discovered only when a new business manager was hired in September 2010. While learning about the procedures in the business office the business manager realized in early December that a number of the receipts had clearly been altered, Mr. Force said. Ms. Reed was then questioned and arrested.

Had the new business manager not been hired, he said, Ms. Reed’s embezzlement might have continued for years.

“I was shocked when I saw the records,” he said. “When you looked at them, it was very obvious something was going on, and I immediately contacted the inspector general for the city and worked with them to supply all the records we could.”"
