Emergency Response

A small, rural public library, we have public restrooms.

My library's reopening plan calls for not allowing group meetings/ programs for a time.

We got lucky: an employee, who was asymptomatic at work but tripped one of the screening factors requiring him to stay home, was tested and found NEGATIVE for COVID-19.

Should a board of trustees vote on their institution’s COVID-19 Safety Plan?  Or should the adoption of the Plan be left entirely to the institution’s director or executive dire

I work at a public library that is gradually reopening to the public. We employ quite a few librarians who trend older and have underlying health conditions.

In regards to COVID-19 when libraries do reopen, (and allow people in) is it advisable to ask customers to leave the public building if they are exhibiting any visible COVID symptoms

I was recently contacted by my employer stating that someone had applied for unemployment benefits using my Social Security number name and Job title.

Is it permissible to make digital copies of choral music that is legally owned by the institution to students in choral and instrumental ensembles?

In the spring, it was clear academic libraries providing digital resources were in a state of emergency and fair use restrictions were loosened.
