15:00:06 From Janet McKenney : I'm listening to Dr. Shah and will unmute in a bit. 15:15:23 From Sue Schroeder-Bridge Academy Public Library : T storm headed here too...may lose power, often do! 15:15:30 From Ruth Eveland : And it is a lovely sunny afternoon here in Bar Harbor. 15:15:55 From Cheryl H : Pouring rain out here Western Maine, Cornish 15:16:25 From Pam Slattery-Thomas : Not yet in Hiram (east) Cheryl! 15:17:32 From Sue Schroeder-Bridge Academy Public Library : Patron asked...is ILL available at MSL for MSL cardholders? If no, do you know when it will return? Thanks. 15:18:28 From Quint : Are the cleaning supplies on the list from the last session the only ones we can use? Specifically store brand wipes that have the same ingredients are not on this list. 15:19:14 From davismemoriallibrary : Not yet raining in Limington, Cheryl and Pam 15:19:39 From Charity Williams : nice and sunny here in bath 15:23:44 From Karen Eger : Thank you Jamie. This is tough times. 15:24:00 From Ruth Eveland : Deep empathy. 15:28:15 From Kate SW Harbor Public Lib : To confirm - each library needs to quarantine 3 days after we process the ILL? 15:29:10 From Brenda Lynn Gould : I have questions about the time a patron may spend in the library. The COVID-19 Prevention Checklist Public Library Guidance (May 21, 2020) under library specific guidance limits patron time in the library to 30 minutes. First question: Are the majority of public libraries continuing to follow this time limit guidance? Second question: At what point may libraries reasonably increase the time individual patrons can stay in the library? For example an increase to one hour? Thank you for your responses. 15:29:45 From Leslie Mortimer : PFL is using 30 minutes 15:30:06 From Karen Eger : We are sticking to 30 minutes when we are open. 15:30:12 From Hope @ Caribou Public Library : Caribou is 30 minutes. 15:30:32 From Amy Levine : We're limiting to 30 minutes in Rockland 15:30:42 From Caroline @ Thomaston Public Library : Thomaston is sticking to 30 minutes as well. 15:31:30 From Heather Runnels - Auburn Public Library : Brenda - Auburn Public Library is limiting to 30 minutes as well w/ 1 hour computer usage by appointment. 15:31:32 From Ann Thomas : We are hoping to do some outside programs in September (physical distancing and masks) 15:33:11 From Mary Anne Mead : In a previous email it was stated that "books entering ILL from libraries have already been quarantined 72 hours....Libraries can immediately circulate ILL items coming from libraries because the books have been quarantined.....Contents of bags sent to libraries may be mixed but if each library quarantines both their books and ILL returns for at least 72 hours, items received have already been quarantined." So I'm confused..... 15:39:24 From Karen Eger : Do check with your HVAC maintenance people as I just learned that heat pumps can be compromised if you keep windows open and make the system work differently than designed. Also, the filters in the systems are very specific and can't be changed out necessarily. 15:39:48 From Barb Rehmeyer : I thought that fans were not suppose to be used as it moved the air around. Are window fans different? If so, is the direction suppose to be moving air in or out? 15:41:47 From Deborah Clark : Bring the good outside air in. 15:43:15 From Mary-Lou Boucouvalas : How sad. No singing! 15:43:55 From Madison Public : We are not offering programs for children in the near future. We are trying to do a few things well, and storytimes are like herding cats in the best of times. 15:46:42 From Hope @ Caribou Public Library : Is there a link to that programming suggestion sheet? 15:47:23 From Jeff Cabral : https://www.maine.gov/msl/libs/services/documents/COVIDProgrammingConsiderations.pdf 15:47:25 From Hope @ Caribou Public Library : Found it! :-) 15:49:07 From Jeff Cabral : Wading into the world of HVAC will yield so many new acronyms (MERV filters, ERVs, and HRVs to name a few). SO much fun. 15:49:41 From Debra Lay : Any idea whether the REALM study will test book covers (variety of plastics) in the near future? 15:50:21 From Holly@PittsfieldPL : In addition to the REALM study, the DVD cases bit? 15:51:24 From Sue Schroeder to Janet McKenney(Privately) : Anyone apply for the Economic Recovery Grant yet? Interested in how easy or not the process is. 15:51:27 From ncrowell : I noticed the DVDs were still "hot" after 4 days. Day 5 was neutral. 15:51:53 From Sue Schroeder to Janet McKenney(Privately) : Sorry Janet...supposed to be public post! 15:52:10 From Sue Schroeder : Anyone apply for the Economic Recovery Grant yet? Interested in how easy or not the process is. 15:52:47 From Lesley Unger : I did the webinar and it looks like a LOT of work. 15:52:59 From Sue Schroeder : That was my thought too! 15:54:34 From Pam Slattery-Thomas : Hi Janet - I'm finding that we aren't using the ZOOM account as extensively as I had hoped for. Would you like to cancel ours - if possible - so that others can use it? Apologies for the wasted time. 15:55:15 From Pam Slattery-Thomas : Okay - thank you! 15:55:15 From andreastark : What’s the current thinking/practice about stacking items in quarantine v spreading them out? 15:56:38 From maecorrion : My question is : are people processing ILL's before they are quarantined? 15:56:58 From David : I thought they had determined that material to material transmission was low to the point of being statistically insignificant 15:57:01 From davismemoriallibrary : Not here…we quarantine them 4 days after. 15:57:12 From davismemoriallibrary : They arrive. 15:57:14 From Karen Eger : We don't process until the 72 hours is over so that when the patron sees the message, it really is ready for them. 15:57:22 From Myra : Processing after quarantine for staff safety. 15:57:44 From Jeff Cabral : yes, process after not only for staff safety but prevening patron confusion 15:57:48 From Karen Eger : Order more funny books... 15:57:58 From Leslie Mortimer : Our ILL Coordinator keeps everything in the crates for 72 hours before she unpacks them and checks them in 15:58:11 From Leslie Mortimer : PFL is not 15:58:23 From Caroline @ Thomaston Public Library : We're processing after the 72 hour quarantine for staff safety and so the patrons don't get the pickup notice until it is really ready. 15:58:42 From maecorrion : That's what we do as well but I was getting the impression that some libraries were taking the Ill's out and processing and then quarantining which was horrifying to me. 15:59:39 From Pam Dunning : i find these discussions very helpful. 16:00:20 From laura edwards : Any discussion on the latest Batelle results regarding the virus on totes? 16:00:44 From Brenda Lynn Gould : Thank you Janet and Jamie! 16:01:04 From Brenda Lynn Gould : Thank you everyone! 16:02:05 From Nancy Petersons : Thank you for all the information you provide! It is a help! 16:02:15 From Blue Hill Public Library : Please repeat the question, janet 16:03:07 From Kate SW Harbor Public Lib : How to measure air before and air after airflow mitigation 16:03:13 From Kate SW Harbor Public Lib : Putting in mitigation now 16:03:22 From Kate SW Harbor Public Lib : Thanks! 16:07:34 From BPL Director : I can't imagine having to figure this all out...I asked the furnace service person and he recommended a MRV filter and I bought it. 16:09:45 From BPL Director : We are lucky to have heat 16:10:45 From BPL Director : not 16:11:08 From Karen Eger : Thank you Janet. 16:11:09 From davismemoriallibrary : Thank you, Janet! 16:11:14 From andreastark : Thanks so much, Janet. 16:11:15 From Cheryl H : Thank you Janet! 16:11:17 From Sue Schroeder : Thanks! 16:11:22 From Ann Thomas : Thank you! 16:11:27 From Debra Lay : Thanks so much! 16:11:30 From Amy Levine : Thank you all! 16:11:30 From Charity Williams : see you 16:11:30 From Pam Slattery-Thomas : Thank you - once again extremely helpful! 16:11:31 From Caroline @ Thomaston Public Library : Thank you! 16:11:40 From Quint : THanks all
