COVID-19 NEWS: Reopening Libraries in Denmark
Christian Lauersen writes the following on The Library Lab blog:It feels both liberating, important and right to be reopening libraries slowly in Denmark at this time but also alerting and with a huge amount of respect for the situation and the safety of staff and citizens—that is our main priority. … I will as detailed as possible try to explain how we went about balancing safety with the reopening of some library services. … I’ve described our actions of closing down in the blog post ‘Coronavirus and libraries: Staying safe and staying relevant’. … I collected a lot of [information about services] in the blog post ‘Never let a serious crisis go to waste”: Libraries transforming in the age of Corona’. … I can not underline enough how important it is to involve staff in solutions like this—those are often the ones with the most practical know-how when it comes to core library business and it is them who will be in the front line when we roll the solutions out so they should have a big [say] in how it is done. For more information, read the blog post.
