Accession Number:	The first real indication that something was different was when our normally full library was suddenly empty. The medical school and nursing education teams had dismissed all students from our health service, the day before there had not even been rumours of it so it took us by surprise. Suddenly self-isolation in the library was very easy. We spaced out the desks, removed half the chairs to limit people working in groups. We began to regularly wipe down all computers and workspaces and provided more hand sanitiser around the library. As the students had moved out more hospital staff started moving in. Staff started using the library space as their office if there was not enough room to meet social distancing requirements in their own. We lost a few computers, and desks to new ICU departments being quickly set up.
