The most recent REALM results reference testing items in "an unstacked
configuration."  That made me wonder about the way we're currently
quarantining books, i.e., stacked in totes. Even shelved on a cart could
leave surfaces touching.

If all those pieces of paper in the first stages of the testing were also
spread out, does that mean we need to spread books out on a table to let
the virus dissipate?  Or isn't it an issue, since all of the pages are
touching anyway?

I feel like Alice, falling down the rabbit hole!
