Oral history interview with Jimmy Jones conducted by Claytee D. White and Stefani Evans on August 29, 2024 for the UNLV Remembers: an Oral History of the 6 December 2023 Shootings project. In this interview, Jones describes arriving at his office inside UNLV Lied Library and was answering emails when the first alert came across his computer screen. He called the University Police Department (UPD) and confirmed the situation, then went to the Circulation Desk and ordered the building locked down--no one in or out. When multiple groups of police arrived--eventually including FBI, SWAT, ATF, Metro, etc.--he introduced himself as the on-scene commander of the building. After the building was evacuated, he assisted ATF to avoid breaking doors by making himself available to unlock every door in the Library. Jones describes the atmosphere of the students in the library as somber and fearful. He returned the following day to check for damage inside the library, and found minimal damage except "clear" written on some doors. He also discusses racism in the workplace.
