[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't want librarians to get sick after handling contaminated items. But doesn't COVID-19 only last on surfaces for a few days? If the materials are returned thru the book drop into large bins which can be wheeled away and left for a few days, how would this put the library staff in danger? If they had curbside pick-up of materials (i.e., make the patron pop the trunk after providing their last name) how would that be putting librarians in danger? [/quote]

The book drops will very quickly get full. The library I used to work at had a book drop that was always overflowing on the day after a holiday. Quite frankly, libraries don't have extra book drop bins just sitting around.[/quote]

That seems a problem th at we could solve. Boxes, crates, order more bins. Or only 2-3 libraries per county are open so they can share bins.

Or no returns - only curbside pickup. We could do this if we wanted it bad enough. That what gets me. If librarians had expensive lobbyists on the halls of power (like golf course owners or something), they could do this. [/quote]
