Password for the Print Release Station

When the Print Release Station computer was replaced, it was set up to require a password to re-boot the computer. The password can be found in the Reference Notebook at the reference desk.

Print Cards

Because we are not able to exchange dollar bills for coins from the Smart Money drawer, the natural instinct is to want to find another way to help customers who do not have bills to purchase or add money to print cards. However, since doing this means staff will be using their own funds to change coins for bills, and it is not always possible to do this, it is probably not a good practice to get in the habit of doing.

Keeping the Circulation Desk neat

A reminder to everyone- please try to sort books that come in while you are at the circulation desk so that the desk will be neat for the next staff member.

Meeting Room bookings

As we all know, there frequently is some confusion with meeting room bookings. Following are a few things that should help:
* When putting a booking into the meeting room calendar, please indicate with the description of the event if we have a meeting room request form or if one still is needed. The easiest way of this is to put "needs form" if one has not yet been filled out. Make sure to delete "needs form" when one is filled out.
*Please put your initials with the description of the event in case there are any staff questions about the event.
*Due to heavy demand for the room on Saturdays, please ask groups to limit their bookings to two hours.

Michelle has volunteered to oversee the meeting room bookings now that Maria is no longer here; she may come to you if she has any questions.

Hopefully what is listed above should make the process run a bit smoother.
Thanks in advance.
