About our COVID mitigation rules this year: (Please read!!)
The COVID-19 pandemic is ongoing, and it's crucial that we do our best to mitigate potential spread at the bookfair. In addition to reducing illness overall, COVID mitigations like mask requirements are also a disability justice issue. Many people have been shut out from public life due to the lifting of government-led mask mandates. Let's ensure that disabled/immunocompromised folks and others at higher risk feel welcome and safe while attending this year's Anarchist Bookfair. We keep us safe!
Below are our full COVID-19 mitigations. If you have any questions, or need to talk to us about a medical exemption or any other accessibility needs, please don’t hesitate to email bostonanarchistbookfair@gmail.com
• Please do not come if you are feeling sick, tested positive for covid within 10 days of the bookfair, or were recently exposed to someone with COVID-19.
• We encourage everyone attending the bookfair to monitor their symptoms and test before arriving if that is accessible to you. (we’ll also have tests available)
• Masks are required for everyone (age 2+) at this event.
Masks must be worn over your nose and mouth at all times inside of the space except while drinking water. (otherwise, food and drinks outside only please!)
• We’ll provide KN95 + N95 masks, and accept donations to help pay for them
◦ If you bring your own mask, it must be surgical or better. No cloth masks please.
• We will have true hepa air purifiers (or cr boxes utilizing merv-13 quality air filters) throughout the space to clean the air
• Depending on the status of covid-19 in the boston area, we may add additional precautions, or we may cancel in-person tabling altogether if the caseload in Massachusetts is too high
