Due to the rising number of coronavirus infections and the resultant shortage of hospital beds, stricter hygiene regulations have entered into force today. The so-called hospital traffic light (Krankenhausampel) has switched to red, with which medical masks are no longer sufficient.
It is recommended to also wear a mask at the assigned workstation in the reading room, even if the minimum distances can be maintained due to the access regulations. If the situation worsens and in order to provide access to the Library for as many users as possible in times of high demand, we may have to revert back to the mask obligation even at the work stations.
