Reopening Libraries Under COVID-19

 

We know many public libraries are in the midst of reopening or planning for phased reopening in the coming weeks. Given the health and safety risks involved, we also know how daunting this process can be. To help, we are providing members with an advanced copy of the article "Reopening Under COVID-19: A Space Planning Approach" by David Vinjamuri and Joe Huberty, featured in the upcoming May/June 2020 issue of Public Libraries magazine.

 

The article covers five potential stages of reopening, considerations and concerns, building walk-through spaces, and reintroducing a sitting library.
