Reopening and Masks

As I’ve said, on June 22nd we’ll start allowing patrons in the building by appointment to use the computers. Unless cases spike in the next couple of weeks, the next step of letting a limited number of patrons browse by appointment will probably be a week or two after that. I have some plastic chain on order that we’ll use like theater ropes to guide patrons to the places on public desks protected by sneeze guards and to block off seating, play areas, and other spots that won’t be open yet. Once patrons are allowed back in, those at public desks (PS will be first) will be required to wear masks. Some of you may not mind the masks but for me wearing the masks I have for more than 10 or 15 minutes at a time is a hot and nasty thing. If you don’t like the mask you have, there are several boxes of disposable masks on the ledge behind the circ. desk that you can try. If you like them, use as many as you like during your shift. If you don’t like the one you have and you don’t like the disposable ones, let me know and I’ll see if I can find something else.
