  *   Understanding How COVID-19 Widens the Justice Gap<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.webjunction.org%2Fnews%2Fwebjunction%2Funderstanding-how-COVID-19-widens-the-justice-gap.html&data=04%7C01%7Cmarshams%40library.ohio.gov%7C2a3df6760f024b5e37a308d8705985cf%7C50f8fcc494d84f0784eb36ed57c7c8a2%7C0%7C0%7C637382877094231915%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=C5F0IF96G1QSxHG%2FDZ8jEVhh85ibE6bvC%2FzRpcBssFA%3D&reserved=0>: The Improving Access to Civil Legal Justice through Public Libraries initiative has previously discussed the challenges facing those who fall into the justice gap-the divide between the need for civil legal aid and a person’s ability to access resources to meet the need. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated this gap and created a surge in civil legal issues for many people with rising unemployment, housing insecurity, medical debt, concerns of safety and domestic violence, and more.

Now more than ever, the care and feeding of library buildings, from historic to new, demands greater attention. With occupant health and safety in mind, common issues, such as cleaning, plumbing, or HVAC systems, take on new urgency. Many library directors and staff become facilities managers by default, with no formal training. This webinar offers a primer on building systems and issues, along with tools for preventive maintenance, energy assessments, optimizing ventilation and filtration, and more. Presenters share what they learned the hard way, in large and small libraries, so that you can be more prepared and self-assured.
Presented by: Lauren Stara, Library Building Specialist, Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners; Andrea Bunker, Library Building Specialist, Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners; and Lynn Piotrowicz, Director, Tucker Free Library (NH)
