Quick Notes (from SW Managers Team Meeting 12/1/15)

Keep bookend on each shelf. If no room, shift or float items to make space.
Use standard HPL email signature format. It should include the HPL logo, disclaimer and Citizensnet info (in your desktop email and Outlook Web Access). See Karen or Lauren if you need help setting this up (or go to http://houstonlibrary.org/hpl-brand/internal-documents/email-signature):
Email: also use plain pages, no “stationary” or decorated backgrounds.
Emails sent to all staff emails must be approved first by Michele Gorman (for Customer Experience).
If you are planning to retire or resign in the near future, please let Karen or Lauren know as soon as possible so we can notify CE Administration about filling your position.
Badges must be worn and visible in public areas and workrooms when you’re on the clock.
Building lights should be turned off at night.
The private line number should always be answered using the standard greeting (and should always be answered).
Customers who want to check out a book they just returned are welcome to do so (if there are no holds for it). There is no “24-hour rule” that requires a book must be returned to the shelf first before it can be checked out again.
If there’s no Clear Holds report in the morning, notify the IT Help Desk, then pull books that are dated 14 days or more.
Axis360 training is required for all front-line staff by December 18. Notify Karen or Lauren when you have completed the training.
