i've struggled with thoughts on after hours access as well. wayne, my business partner, is a night owl and so he is likely to be in our space later than i will be whereas i have an opposite schedule and prefer mornings. we've discussed access and decided on 24/7 access for a number of reasons. one is that there was another coworking facility in town (which has since closed) and it was open 24/7 as well and there are some people from that space that are still interested in coworking that have asked for unlimited access (not that we're trying to mimic what they had, but there's no harm in duplicating some of their best features). another reason is that we have had some interest from people who still work a regular day job and want a more cohesive space to go at night or on weekends and we want to be able to accommodate varying needs.
we've talked about the honour system combined with a number of ways to beef up security - security cameras, swipe cards, monitoring wifi logins, insurance, etc - and today we'll be making some decisions about how to process membership applications. i'd be interested in hearing more about different spaces do their membership screening. -- rachel young rac...@camaraderie.ca are you on twitter? follow @camaraderie for updates.
