As a public space where people access knowledge, libraries are characterized by high occupancy and significant user turnover. The books themselves—key carriers of library collections—release chemical substances during manufacturing, and coupled with readers’ poor reading habits, they become contaminated to varying degrees with a wide array of microorganisms. During circulation, they are particularly susceptible to contamination by pathogenic agents. Studies have shown that a book in use for more than three years can harbor over 400 distinct types of pathogens, including influenza viruses, streptococci, Escherichia coli, and hepatitis B virus. According to reports, once public items are contaminated with the hepatitis B virus, the pathogen can remain viable for at least 30 days under conditions of 20°–30°C. Such common pathogens can easily spread widely and cause cross‑infection during the circulation of library materials, posing a serious threat to public health and safety.
