Information Services Desk Computer

Hello,

We have replaced the information services desk computer so that we don't have log in issues anymore.  When you sign in please make sure, before you log into Voyager that your printer is set up properly.  Please go to the "Start" menu, select "Devices and Printers," right click over "Circulation Receipt Printer" and set it as your default printer.  Then open Voyager.  The setting on the printer now is just print out just the size of the receipt, so after you print, push the "Feed" button on the receipt printer just enough to get enough paper to be able to rip the receipt off without cutting off any of the text.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Heidi

Finals Week

The finals week schedules are up on the website.  You can look at them by either selecting your personal schedule or the department schedules and moving them to June 2nd-6th.

I have put up two shifts that need coverage during that time, if you are interested.

Let me know if you have any questions,
Heidi

End-of-Term Matters

TO:                  Oesterle Library Student Assistants

FROM:            Belinda Cheek, Coordinator of the Student Assistant Program

RE:                  End-of-Term Matters

DATE:             May 8, 2012

There are several matters that we must take care of before the term ends.  Please read this memo carefully!

1.            All supervisors will be completing performance evaluations for each of the student assistants that work in their unit.  Your supervisor(s) will meet with you by June 1^st to discuss your evaluation.  Please let me know if you have any questions about this process.

2.            We need to know whether or not you are planning to return to North Central and your position at the library in the fall.  If you are returning, please complete a Fall Term schedule as indicated below.  If for any reason you do not plan to return in the fall, please fill out the “Will not be returning to Oesterle” form to let us know your intentions as soon as possible!

3.            FALL TERM SCHEDULES - All of you who do plan to return to work Fall Term will be assigned a work schedule before you leave for the summer.  That work schedule will be for the first two weeks of the term only.  Priority during that time will be given to covering all night and weekend desk hours, and then daytime desk hours as available.  We will need to hire a large number of new student assistants during those two weeks, and we will be depending on all of you to help us keep operations running while we do that hiring!  Early in the second week of the term you will receive a new work schedule that will be in effect for weeks 3-10.

You should be complete the appropriate schedule on this page to indicate when you will be available to work during those first two weeks of Fall Term.  Please complete the form carefully and thoughtfully!  Also, remember that if you submit a schedule that that does not leave sufficient hours for us to work with when assigning schedules, the form will be returned to you for revision!  All forms should be given to Heidi by 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, MAY 17^th.

4.         FINALS WEEK - All student assistants are expected to work their regular work schedule through Saturday, June 2^nd.  A finals week schedule is being prepared for Sunday, June 3^rd through Wednesday, June 6^th.  All student assistants are required to sign up to work a minimum of four hours during finals week.  Please see Heidi by 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, MAY 17^th to sign up for your hours.

Student Assistant Picnic!

REMINDER: DISCHARGE ITEMS!

Hello,

I have been getting more than a few reports that when people return items they are not being discharged from their accounts.  Please be sure to do this, it is one of the most important and easiest tasks you have as a student on the information services desk.  DISCHARGE THEM!

Thanks,
Heidi

Periodicals Desk Heater

Hello!

When you are at the periodicals desk  please feel free to use the space heater.  If you aren't using it or are done using it, please turn it off and unplug it.  Also, the last person of the day should make sure that the heater is unplugged.  We do not want a fire!

Thank you,
Heidi
