6136 - Keep the Kodesh Kover!
Question
Q. Dear Rabbi. How covered must a person be in a room with sefarim (holy books) out (for example, on top of a desk)? Can somebody change their clothes in front of sefarim?
Answer
A. A person should not stand naked in front of kisvei kodesh. However, if a person is at least partially dressed it is fine. עי' מ"ב סי' מה ס"ק ה לעמוד ערום לפני כתבי קודש
