Hi Pamela,

We are quarantining any new print periodicals and newspapers for 4 days, based on information from the REALM Project studies, specifically Test 2.

We have completely closed all of our Periodicals locations to the public, and are using our Document Delivery service to deliver individual articles. I added a note with a clickable link to our ILL Article Request Form to all of our Periodicals holdings. (Yay for Alma’s Change Holding Information job!) One example is our record for National review.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [SERIALST] Quarantine of Current Periodicals after they have been returned or used by Students, Faculty or Staff

Was trying to get an idea on how long we should quarantine print periodicals that are used or returned by students. Faculty or staff. Our entire periodicals collection is going to be closed so it will be request only. It would be very helpful to find out what others are doing.  Thanks in advance
