Circulation Safety Information
We are using best practices and safety protocols on cleaning the materials housed and circulated through the Grant Wood AEA Media Center. Once circulation begins after Labor Day weekend, our partnering teachers and district staff might encounter some delays in receiving their materials due to our increased cleaning protocols.
