I believe this only applies to "social gatherings" like allowing people to use your meeting room, Board meetings, and the other things Clare mentions at the bottom of her email. There is also a link at the bottom of her email that will help clarify the meaning of "social gatherings and organized events." I don't think this applies to the regular operation of a library, only to special gatherings like those listed.

CORRECTION I am confused by this. Did she ever publicly announce this? As an example, theaters (gyms, etc.) can be open, but we can only limit to 10 indoors at a time? I have 9 staff at a branch, do I have to shut it down? I am not cutting my staffs hours as they desperately need the money. There is nothing they can do at home. But sports and schools can be open (exempt)? Can I just get some clarification on this.
