Thanks to everyone who responded to my query on precautionary measures to
combat swine-flu. I got 10 responses - either personally or to the list.
To sum up everyone seems to be doing something!
Two libraries spoke of putting together a business continuity plan in the
event of an outbreak of swine flu amongst staff. Most of the others are
providing tissues and hand sanitizers at desks as well as wipes for
telephones and keyboards. Most have put up posters and/or web notices.
Several libraries are offering free alcohol-based keyboard/mouse wipes on
request to members. Most respondents thought gloves were unnecessary for
staff handling money or books.
Thanks again for all of your help. We have decided to implement all of the
above!!
