Are there any resources or guidance for libraries regarding the H1N1 flu virus, more commonly known as swine flu?
As mentioned in the Ask-the-Librarian Flu Preparedness question, the ALA Library has compiled a detailed list of contacts and resources at the Pandemic Planning page on the ALA Professional Tips Wiki, which includes a list of topics to include in an individual library policy.
