SAFETY MEASURES

 

The library has put into place a series of measures to assure the safety of everyone. 

• The number of seats is limited to 30 which means the number of students allowed at any one time is also 30.
  
  
• Enter the library through the main doors at the top of the stairs and exit through the side door. 
  
  
• The library will be opened during "morning break" for students who have a free at 10:40.
  
  
• Gel distributors, spray and paper are available.
  
  
• Refrain from moving the furniture, it has been set up to maximise safe distancing. 
  
  
• You are responsible for wiping off your table and chair after each use.
  
  
• Avoid touching books and magazines as much as you can. Ask us for help and use the online catalog whenever possible.
  
  
• Returned books will be "quarantined" for a minimum of 4 days before returning to the shelves.
  
  
• The printer-photocopier is now located at the top of the stairs, in front of the library.
  
  
• We will close at 3:20 pm for the first few weeks.
