[aisle] Students Back in the Library!

[Flaherty, Megan]

I really believe that is okay. I know that some library organizations recommend 4-7 days but there have really been a minimal number of cases that have been shown to be transferred by physical surfaces. Basically the student would have to sneeze directly on the book and hand it to another person right away. If the covers are laminate or plastic, you can always wipe them down just to be safe. Just my opinion, but I am not a doctor! 😉

We have been having students in the library for a few weeks now. I let them touch the books. I just tell them if there is one they change their mind about to put it on top of the bookshelf. I let it sit out and just put it away in the morning. I figure with masks and hand sanitizer the amount of time they have it in their hands doesn't qualify it to be quarantined.

Yahoo!  I"m so excited today because our students are finally coming back to the library.  They will be social distancing with masks and using hand sanitizer when they enter and exit the library.  My thought is that with them all using hand sanitizer when they enter, they should be good to touch the books.  Thoughts?  Is my thinking correct?  I welcome all thoughts on this.  Thanks!
