Limited Circ Staffing Procedures for Phase I

As Circ staff begin training working in the library again, I’d like to share our current plans on the cleaning/using of library spaces and the use of masks and gloves.

Circ staff will not be floating between workstations. At the beginning of each shift, they will pick a workstation and put a Post It note with their name on the computer. The staff member beginning the shift will be responsible to wipe down the keyboard, mouse, desk, phone and monitor. Please do not use the phone or computer at a workstation/phone if the computer has a note on it.

Before we open to the public, we will be wearing masks while talking with co-workers and while moving around the library. We may remove our face coverings while at our workstation.

We will be using a new pair of gloves each time we empty the book return and each time we do check-in in addition to washing our hands after we remove the gloves. We will not be using the same pair of gloves when moving between tasks, and we will be washing our hands frequently between tasks.

These are the processes that have been put in place in preparation for the first phase of reopening when limited Circ staff and TS staff will be in the building. They may change as we move through the phases of reopening. If you have any questions about the current processes, please visit with Molly, Dreama or Eric.
