COVID-19 Health and Safety 

Masks are optional, but use is strongly recommended. It is advisable to wear a mask if close contact cannot be avoided, or if you are arriving to the Book Fair from a situation or location that required masking.

Please do not attend the fair if you are experiencing any symptoms of COVID-19, were diagnosed with COVID-19 within the past 5 days, or have been recommended to quarantine or isolate by a medical official.

Consider testing yourself using a home rapid COVID test kit prior to arrival.

Consider your personal risk factors and those of your close contacts at home and take appropriate measures to protect yourself. This may include being up to date with your COVID-19 vaccination and

wearing a well-fitting, high quality mask while attending the fair.

Please refer to Understanding Risk | CDC
