Description

Several tables set up in the Coralville Public Library rotunda, all carrying stacks of books and other library materials. The Circulation Desk can be seen in the left far corner; in the right, another table holds cleaning supplies.

During the public closure of the Coralville Public Library during the pandemic, patrons are still welcome to return any checked out items back to the library. As a way to make the check-in process safer for library staff, these materials are first quarantined for a couple days before being cleaned, checked back in, and made available for out-going circulation.
