v Keep the library away from high-traffic areas, especially if the floor is carpeted.
Carpeting harbors dust and people walking on the carpet can cause the carpet
fibers and the dust to become airborne.
v Keep the library out of printer/copier rooms because of toner and paper dust.
Additionally, do not store paper supplies next to the library.
v Keep the library away from moving air caused by doorways, open windows,
fans, and air conditioners.
Ensure that the machine covers are always kept closed to minimize any
contamination from airborne particles.
