Reopening NH Libraries Task Force Report

The Reopening NH Libraries Task Force has released their first version of the Resources/Best Practices document (and a day early at that!)

The document can be found at the top of the NHLA COVID19 web page, http://nhlibrarians.org/covid-19-resources/

A big thank you to the 18 librarians who worked so hard to research, cull, collate, and make sense of a myriad of resources – all of the task force members are listed on the introduction page of the document.

Please remember that the intention of this document is to provide the most reliable resources, links, and practices that we know abou t right now to guide NH library boards and staff while they create a staged reopening plan for their libraries.  This is not a set of recommendations, or a set of mandates.  Each library in each community needs to create their own plan, assess their own risk/liability, and take into account the many factors that have to be considered in light of a global health pandemic.

The task force will continue to meet, and anticipates that revisions to this document will occur. Please continue to bookmark and visit the NHLA COVID19 web page for the most recent updates.
