I work for The Memphis Public Library.  At this time, we are not quarantining books, but that does not mean that we will not start doing this again. We are all still wearing masks and making sure that our customers do as well.  When books were being quarantined, we quarantined them for 4 days.

Hello everyone,

I am just checking to see how many people are still quarantining books and/or if it’s even still considered a necessary practice.  If you are still quarantining, how long are you waiting before returning them to circulation.

Thanks,

Shelia
