: Most public libraries across the country have begun operating again with various new approaches and initiatives in place under the new normal preventive measures introduced to comply with standard operating procedures aimed at curbing the Covid-19 pandemic.
In addition to implementing the prescribed SOPs, there are a number of reforms introduced such as the limited number of visitors and new methods of borrowing and returning books such as the use of the online platform for booking of books and courier services for the delivery and return of these materials.
“PNM welcomes the public to get 13.2 million digital reading materials through the u-Pustaka portal and follow various interesting online programmes or activities organised through PNM’s social media,“ she told Bernama. PNM sets four guidelines for borrowing and returns which are limited to 20 people at a time; only 20 minutes of time is allocated for each user; users are only allowed to borrow and return ; and children are not allowed in.
Meanwhile, The Selangor Public Library Corporation provides its “BookFly2U” service to enable users to borrow books only by using WhatsApp or telephone applications, to make it easier for people who still want to go to the library to borrow books. Users only need to submit the name of the book they want to borrow on WhatsApp to 010-8491448 or call 03-55197667.
