Our children's librarian says that we had a total of 27 shelves "affected," with approximately 50 books per shelf. So that's close to 1500 books, give or take. We had one of those cleaning companies in to evaluate, and they think that they can save about 90% of them. (clean, irradiate, whatever they do to sanitize and salvage) And the insurance company should cover the cost. But you know that some of the unsalvageable books will be irreplaceable, and having a large chunk of the history and biography section of the children's collection unavailable for an indeterminate amount of time is not good. Grrrr. (The children's librarian is leaving for two week's vacation on Saturday-- she can't get out of town fast enough!)

I think (and hope) that the insurance company won't be too much of a pain, but you never know until things are totally resolved.
