Academic Libraries in the Time of Pandemic and Thereafter: What changed and what is here to stay?

Abstract

This presentation discusses the University of Maryland Libraries' response to the Covid-19 pandemic and the immediately following period of resuming operation. Did the pandemic teach us anything? Are there things that have changed us forever? Libraries all over the world have had to deal with these issues. We are one example of many. But coming this far, we are happy to share our experiences and learn from others in hopes that we can help each other cope and serve our users to the best of our abilities.
