As Panzer was napping, he was rudely shaken from his kitty bed by clapping and cheering coming from the Catosphere. Dragging his poor little kitty self into the Panzermobile, he headed out. Following all the hullabaloo took him to the Publishers Weekly site. There with no digging at all he found a post about libraries reopening was causing all the noise.
According to the post by Andrew Albanese, libraries will be reopening soon. A survey done by the American Library Association (ALA) found that 37 percent of the libraries that responded planned to begin "phase reopening" in June or July. Reopening won't be as it was before Covid-19. It means libraries will need to be rearranged to provide social distancing and staff will need masks and gloves. During the pandemic library users took advantage of digital book checkout, but now a lot of users want to go back to libraries for hands-on books (paperbacks and hardbacks). This post contains several links to information about libraries, the lockdowns, digital books, budgets, and other information.
