I asked a similar question last week.

I am in the process of compiling the replies that were graciously shared. I will be happy to share with the list.

Subject: [Michlib-l] Quarantining and cleaning materials

The question has been coming up in my library about quarantining and sanitizing returned materials to the library.  We are still quarantining 72 hrs., and wiping items that have a plastic or vinyl covering with a sanitizing cloth before re-shelving.  Are other libraries still following a similar procedure?  If so, would you mind sharing?  

Thanks so much!
