Jamie's Meeting
August 11, 2020
(1:25 PM) Vicky: I have spent $400 on disposable masks so if people don't bring one, we have them for them.  I would like to know how to get free ones from Mask Warriors.
(1:25 PM) APL- Dominic: we do have people who request curbside as well. :) 
(1:26 PM) APL- Dominic: but i'm starting to think this is because it's convenient for people who have a had time getting in the building
(1:26 PM) APL- Dominic: hard time
(1:26 PM) APL- Dominic: but still happy to help them :)
(1:27 PM) Demmer  Library: Vicky - do an internet search for Face Mask Warriors for a local contact (they're broken down by region). Also, you could just put a request out on social media for anybody who's energized to donate some masks. We've got some fanatical stitchers around here who love nothing more than to produce them.
(1:28 PM) Demmer  Library: Good point, Dominic. Maybe some people will feel able to use the library more if curbside remains a service after this is passed.
(1:28 PM) Vicky: WE have sewers who have done 100s, but they are giving them to medical facilities and churches now.  I will look into Face Mask Warriors.  Thanks.
(1:29 PM) Peggy O'Connell: I feel like a lot of people are poised for a fight.
(1:30 PM) Loralee: NPR's Goats and Soda has a column on how to politely remind people to follow Pandemic rules. 
(1:33 PM) Vicky: We were the primary library for our parochial school in town.  9 classes had visited weekly.   Does anyone else have this type of service and what are you doing about visits?
(1:42 PM) Loralee: Our school's bus company just quit. The driver's said they didn't feel safe. So school starting is kind of iffy right now. Unless the school can sign a new company in the near future.
(1:43 PM) Demmer  Library: @Loralee, wow.
(1:43 PM) Janay: oh my Loralee....YIKES
(1:46 PM) Loralee: Owen library has been asked to take 2 students at a time on Friday, the school's virtual learning day, so students without home internet can complete assignments.
(1:51 PM) Demmer  Library: Heidi, can you share the link to that form as an example with us when you get it up? 
(1:56 PM) Heidi O'Hare: Yes
(1:59 PM) APL- Dominic: no wicky, nothign like that yet
(2:01 PM) Loralee: Thanks!
