We are following strict sterilization and cohort-based protocols for hand washing and sanitization of public surfaces and equipment to reduce the spread of COVID. This includes isolating returns for 24 hours.
To reduce the spread of COVID, we have planned library periods such that only one cohort is permitted in the Learning Commons at any given time. With 10 min intervals between classes, we have time to sanitize surfaces, air out the space using windows and fans, and isolate returned materials.
We are following COVID-19 best practices and protocols for all library programs and services. This includes social distancing, disallowing sick persons in the space, consistent mask-use, and not co-sharing materials.
We are following all COVID protocols outlined by the provincial government, in addition to best practices recommended by medical research institutions.
