Information Desk

Hi Everyone, this is just a reminder of how we should organize items at the front desk. All items that need to be checked in should be placed on the big black cart and the items that have already been checked in should go on the smaller cart so that they may be shelved. All items that we run across that have holds or belong to another location should be placed on the second shelf of the big cart. We all should bring them to the back once they are labeled and place them in an outgoing bin.

Work Room

There are a number of things we need to remember when we are working in the Staff Room.

1- Please limit the time you spend on your cell phone on personal calls. This can be distrating to your coworkers and affect your own work.

2- Please limit the time you spend on MySpace, Facebook, personal email to those times you are actually on break.

3- I think that whomever is working the back room should be the first ones to answer the telephone. It can get very busy out front and to have to answer the phone in the middle of everything else is a distraction.

Thanks,

Jeff

Study Room Reservations

I've added a link to the study room reservations spreadsheet in the Desk Information section on the right-hand side of the page. Remember to record the persons name, and library card number on the spreadsheet. Please keep the library card at the desk while the customer is using the study room also.

Thanks

Processing Applications

Hi Everyone,
This is just a friendly reminder on how to process applications. First, check patrons name and DL or ID number to see if they have an account already. Make sure you get the patrons birthdate on the application and DL or ID number. When putting the information into the system please be sure to put LAST NAME first and FIRST NAME second and then MIDDLE NAME. IF you have any questions please ask myself or Dolores.

Thank you,
~Naudia~

GRAND OPENING IS FINALLY HERE!!!

We've finally made it to our Grand Opening! I'm extremely proud of all the hard work and dedication everyone has shown in the last few weeks as we've gotten ready to open!

I've created a schedule here (just click on the page called "Grand Opening Schedule") that we can use as a guideline to tell us where to be throughout the day so that we can provide the best service to our customers as possible! Let's have a great day and greet our customers with a smile as we re-open Frank!
