[Libs-Or] Contract tracing and libraries? And Free contact tracer training for anyone in the world

[Ruth Metz]

Greetings, all.  Is anyone considering contact tracing as a way to deploy staff to help local, statewide, or regional response to C-19?  Some have begun talking about this because of the seeming compatibility of library reference skill sets and the “contact tracer.” 

For the curious-minded, see this announced launch (New York) of a free, six-hour online training, for anyone worldwide.

a free online course to train contact tracers. This course is part of New York's large-scale effort to build an army of contact tracers. If you are interested in becoming part of New York's contract tracing efforts, learn more https://coronavirus.health.ny.gov/get-involved-how-you-can-help
