Elardus, the intention is not to complain. It's to offer a piece of code.

For a good start: Protect your libraries properly while involving the OWNERS of 
those libraries. Then you can complain.

and RACF SMF 80, etc. (granted, thats at dataset level, not member level) Or 
you can use DAF.

You can update members and bypass stats. Even the ISPF option FORCE_STATS won't 
help you all and every time.

Or RACF audit trails where you have for ALL datasets (perhaps excluding 
catalogs) this RACF dataset profile setting AUDIT(ALLl(READ)). With that you 
can audit all access attempts.

Of course, lower your UACC for sensitive datasets.
