2. Through this Book Request Form (Librarians will respond to these form submissions via email with students and prepare orders accordingly.)

Book Check-Out/Check-In Notifications:

• Via email, librarians will notify students when their book orders are ready for pick up.

Safety Precautions:

1. Wear a facemask over the nose and mouth at all times.


2. Exercise social distancing whenever and wherever possible.


3. The librarian takes her temperature, self-monitors for signs of illness, and uses the school’s self-certification system before entering the school building.


4. The librarian washes her hands often and avoids touching her eyes, nose, and mouth.


5. The librarian quarantines books and sanitizes bags before handing to patrons.


6. The librarian wears sanitized gloves before handling books and checking out materials (scanner, keyboard, laptop, post-its, time-stamp, due date cards, book orders, carts)
