Subject: [Libs-Or] Updated COVID-19 Materials Handling Advice

Good morning,
In response to questions received from local libraries, the State Library of Oregon sought the advice of experts from the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) on how to handle and circulate library materials safely during the COVID-19 pandemic. OHA reviewed the REALM Project<https://www.webjunction.org/explore-topics/COVID-19-research-project.html> test results to date and offered the advice outlined in the attached document to assist libraries in making local decisions about handling and circulating materials safely. If you have questions after reviewing the attached information, you may contact Buzzy Nielsen, Program Manager for Library Support and Development Services, at buzzy.nielsen at state.or.us<mailto:buzzy.nielsen at state.or.us> or 971-375-3486.

Best,
Jennifer
