Jose: Yesterday’s computer help session went very well. We can refer patrons who need basic computer
help to their weekly class. Dates should
be on the Google calendar.
Leona: Today having zombie make-up for the book club meeting
(4:30-5:30)
Jose: Alice will be helping with an informal genealogy open group
workshop on 3/11 after the computer class.
Patrons will be able to use the computer lab to learn about genealogy
resources. Alice and Jose will be there
to help and answer any questions. Discussed
getting some of the Clayton library staff to come out again to facilitate a
workshop in the future.
Alice: We now have the
reproducible IRS forms for patrons to make copies from (2nd
floor). The blue pamphlets can also give
people the info if they want any materials mailed to their home. We need to remind any patrons who may have
questions or who are angry that the IRS had a budget cut and we have a limited
supply of materials.
We thanked Temeka for cleaning up the lobby desk. Reminded to clean up after yourselves when
you leave a workstation. If you have to
leave materials at the desk, make sure there are notes on the items indicating
what needs to be done. We can only hold
an item for a patron at a workstation for 24 hours. It must then be put back on the shelf.
Trish is processing the A/V materials with missing discs or discs to be
cleaned. Please put items on her desk
with very detailed notes indicating the issue, patron name or ID#, and your
initials. We need to be checking CDs,
DVDs, and audiobooks every time we get our hands on them. Especially upon checking items in! Do not discharge an item if there is a piece
missing or damaged. Contact the patron
or bill them if necessary. DVDs can be
sent to be cleaned as they come in.
Check the item out to KEN-Repair, note the item with your branch and
initials, and send to:
Disc Repair/Inventory Control
Attention: Christopher Patrick
Chris’s extension is 31620
Do not alter hold expiration dates for patrons! If they can’t make it in time to pick it up
and only if there are no other holds, then the item can be placed back on hold
for them.
Paging: Get completed holds downstairs as quickly as possible. Be sure to finish the paging process by
marking items you cannot find as MISSING in Sirsi. We may need to move to doing ON SEARCH duty
twice a week.
