| Description: | The 66-page study looks at how academic libraries plan to re-open in 2021 and 2022, as well as the enduring legacy that they expect from the COVID experience. The report gives detailed data on exactly how much foot traffic in the library librarians currently have and what they expect for Spring 2021 and Fall 2021. It also gives detailed info on academic library plans to bring employees back into the library building, examining the pace and magnitude of the return to working in the library itself. The report details when librarians expect a vaccine to significantly impact their operations, how many library employees have been diagnosed with COVID-19, and how librarians view the effectiveness of their institution's COVID containment policies. It also looks at how libraries plan to deploy social distancing and COVID-related hygiene measures, as well as the extent to which these policies may be rolled back as vaccines are implemented. The study also polls library leadership opinion on what will be the enduring implications of the COVID experience for academic libraries. |
