In regard to the items coming back from patrons that have tested positive for the coronavirus, how would a library know because of the patron's right to privacy under the ADA Act?

How do you clean materials returned by those that have contracted the virus--and do we need to be proactive now and use some method of cleaning books or waiting? If we're being told to use our own pens to sign things, does that mean that slick book covers and DVDs might be a source of infection. >From the reports I've read, some are saying the virus can live on these surfaces for up to 48 hours--and you cannot clean these items with bleach or spray cleaners. I've not seen any conversations regarding this phase of a Pandemic for libraries.<u></u>
