How to Stay Busy!

Dear Pages,
You're doing a great job of staying caught up with the new return system in place. However, nobody likes to be bored at their job. So, please don't linger over a cart, reading DVD blurbs. Here are the things you should be doing:

1) If Fiction is behind, please help them shelve.
2) Shelf-read. Take a section of books on tape or CDs and put it back in order. Shelf-reading will never be done. There is ALWAYS more to do.
3) Stand outside by the AMH and politely show people how to return library materials. It's beautiful outside - spend some of your shift out there!
4) Do the LAS. But prepare before you do it. Turn on the computer (it takes a while to boot up), put a variety of DVDs on a cart, finish the cart all at once. Make sure you are watching the scanning carefully; we have seen errors lately of DVDs not matching location codes.

Thank you!
Pam

DATE/TIME slips on carts

Hi Pages!

We are able to use the last discharge time to be able to find items that were recently returned again for the AMH. What this means for you?

**Please write the date and time (in LARGE letters/numbers) on a slip and clip it to the cart. Try to NOT cover the letters/numbers with the clip on the cart. :)

I hope you're enjoying the gorgeous weather before you come in for your shift.
