“…The COVID-19 pandemic has not shown any signs of ending, forcing people to live in the New Normal era by implementing new habits following health protocols (Dominelli, 2021;Ingrassia et al, 2020;Mbunge et al, 2021;Winata et al, 2020). For this reason, restoring social interaction due to the COVID-19 pandemic must be done immediately (Alradhawi et al, 2020;Bostan et al, 2020;Mermerkaya & Cınar, 2022;Türkmen, 2021;Usluoğlu et al, 2022).…”

The development of the 4.0 revolution changed the library paradigm, shifting the types of libraries from conventional to digital libraries. The IFLA/UNESCO Manifesto for Digital Libraries officially declares a new paradigm shift in libraries. This manifesto allows libraries to save space by developing digital libraries to build social zones. A social zone is a place for human interaction in various activities. Interaction can occur in a physical or virtual context. This study aims to examine the potential for developing social space through the development of digital libraries. This study used a qualitative method with a field and literature study approach. This study conducted field data validation tests using triangulation techniques. Based on field research, libraries that have implemented digital libraries can save space usage. The room was originally for placing collection shelves; libraries can then use them to create public spaces. The creation of public space by the library is for activities that involve community participation, such as literacy. In addition, using space to build a co-working space also indirectly contributes to social interaction through discussion activities. The next task of the library is how the library can provide quality collections so that the library can make it a center of information.

Objectives In this study, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between ABO blood groups and Rhesus factor (Rf) and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (Sars-CoV-2), as well as the risk of infection susceptibility and death according to pre-existing comorbidities. Methods This retrospective study included patients medical record between March 2020 and March 2021. A total 470 patients were included in the study. The subjects were categorized according to diagnose of Sars-CoV-2. Also, we evaluated the subject according to severity of Sars-CoV-2 infection. The logistic and multivariate regression analysis were performed to predict possible effect of ABO and Rf types as well as comorbidities on indicators of Sars-CoV-2 severity including Intensive care unit (ICU) hospitalization, intubation, and mortality. Results The distribution of ABO blood type and Rf were not statistically different cases with and without Sars-CoV-2. Blood type B and A were the most groups in intubation and mortality among patients with Sars-CoV-2. However, ABO blood types had no significant effect on risk of Sars-CoV-2 and mortality while, Rf had a significantly effect on it. Additionally, Rf had a statistically significant effect on all severity indicators of Sars-CoV-2 but ABO had not. Conclusions While Rf was significantly associated with risk of Sars-CoV-2 and had a strong effect on ICU admission, intubation, and mortality, ABO groups were not associated with risk of disease. Intubation and mortality rates were higher in patients with blood group B (OR: 2.93 p:0.390 95 % CI [0.253–33.9], OR: 0.217 p:0.211 95 % CI [0.020–2.37]) and Rh factor + (OR: 1.63 p:0.027 95 % CI [0.046–0.828]).
