A doctor in New York asked for help to alleviate the shortage of personal protective equipment for health care workers on the front lines of the coronavirus fight.

A librarian stepped in to help.Now Madiha Choksi, a research technologist at the Columbia University Libraries, is a key member of a group of partners and volunteers that have made over 7,500 protective face shields to distribute to New York City-area hospitals.Madiha Choksi wears one of the face shields 3D printed for health care workers in New York.She received an email from Dr.

Engineering and technology experts at Duke University used the school's 3D-printing lab to test over 100 face shield prototypes.

Choksi said she and the rest of her librarian colleagues and other volunteers know that what they're doing is not a long-term solution to the PPE supply problem, but she hopes that medically approved PPE can be produced soon at the scale needed to meet the demand."But until that happens, we're moving full speed ahead."
