Hello, David! We're using these hair-bonnet style covers ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HYY2YHP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1). We remove and spray them with disinfectant between patrons. We ordered several packages, so we have fresh ones waiting and only have to wipe down the mice and chairs between patrons. It's working out well for us. We use them for public access computers and any shared staff computers. Best wishes to you and your team!

We aren't using keyboard hair nets, but we did buy some of these made in Grand Haven devices to kill bad things on keyboards -- https://www.dbusiness.com/daily-news/grand-havens-uv-angel-unveils-light-dev... On Tue, Sep 1, 2020, 1:23 PM David Votta via Michlib-l <michlib-l@mcls.org> wrote:

Manchester is also using the "hair bonnets.", not the most durable, but functional, and easy to replace. We only have to wipe down the mouse and chair when patrons leave. Kathy Dimond On Tue, Sep 1, 2020 at 7:28 PM John Martin via Michlib-l <michlib-l@mcls.org> wrote:
