Returning to Service: Libraries and COVID-19
With various counties and states operating under a range of public health orders, many directors and managers continue to adapt, seeking a return to “normal” in the wake of various waves of COVID-19. CLiC’s guides try to answer a variety of questions:
“As we start to re-open our buildings, how can we do this safely?”
“What’s the potential for material (returned by patrons, or transported by the statewide courier) to be ‘infected’ with COVID-19?”
“What HR considerations are involved with a return to service?”
Guide 1: “Libraries Returning to Service and COVID-19” – V2.0 Dec 1, 2020. First published Apr 5, this updated short guide features four sections:
- Protect Your Employees and Volunteers
- Deep Clean Your Library
- Handle Materials Safely
- Variables Out of Your Control
Guide 2: “Human Resources Q&A: Libraries and COVID-19” – V1.0 Apr 29, 2020. This 5-page guide features a handful of Q&A-style sections involving the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) and other nuanced HR considerations.
We’ll update these guides sporadically as new information emerges.
