[aisle] classroom library precautions

[Emily Meszaros]

I'm starting back with in person kids on Monday and plan to use guidance
that's been shared on this list many times - here's a great link with loads
of info:
https://www.ila.org/advocacy/covid-19-resources/faq-about-libraries-and-the-coronavirus
.

One frustrating issue that I'm finding in our district is
administrators stating that IDPH doesn't have guidance on this therefore
we'll deal with it as a school.  Anyone else facing this?  I feel very
supported at work but I don't like this stance.
