Run out of AV materials?
Grab a Fiction cart and shelve books! When things slow down in our area, please grab the "oldest" book cart and shelve it. That is where Jim's pages need the most help. Thanks!

Just some reminders:
* LAS
The LAS needs to be filled at least twice a day. Nate usually does the initial fill in the morning before we open. If you come to work in the afternoon, you could probably do some filling in then. Whoever comes in to work after 5:00 should fill it as soon as possible - lots of patrons come in after work to look for movies. If the LAS hasn't been filled, they have fewer choices.
* Total Hours Worked:
When looking over your timesheet before approving it, check your total hours - each week should be pretty close to, but not over than 13.5 hours (and 27 for 2 weeks). Let me know if your hours will be different than that.
* Workflows upgrade:
Workflows will look different soon. I will try to have the test server up 0n each computer for you to look at. It functions the same way, but looks different, and the buttons are in different places. Feel free to try it out - any work you do on it will not affect the actual system.
* What to do:
If you're caught up and the LAS is full and you have done route-ins and New items, please help shelve Fiction books and help empty bookdrop bins. Thanks!

Nonfiction cart reminders
Hi Pages,
Just a few reminders when bringing a NonFiction cart upstairs:
- make sure the cart has a date and time slip clipped to it
- make sure you place the cart at the very end of the line-up of carts upstairs. It might go back through the stacks of magazines a ways.
- put a locking strip on foreign language DVDs (except Hindi, which has a green dot).
- do not lock any DVDs with a green dot.
- put the green dot DVDs on the cart in the telephone reference room (ask if you don't know).
Patrick Jager will be joining our team this week, too. We will be fully staffed for the first time since I've been here!

Approve your time cards today
Hi Pages!
Welcome to our new pages: Andrew Smith and Michelle Hurley! Please make them feel welcome, and help them out learning all our quirky AV shelving methods.
Welcome back to Rebecca!
Remember to approve your time cards today after you punch out for the day. Let me know if I need to fill in any extra times.
Just a heads-up: Workflows is going to have a new look in a couple of weeks. I will have a test page of it up on your computers in the back, and I will train you on it within the next week or two. Feel free to poke around on the test version of it. It's called "Symphony".

Missing or Damaged Media
Just to clarify what to do when you find a DVD or CD missing from a case or a damaged case:
1. On Workflows, open Checkout.
2. Type in "AVFIX" for UserID.
3. Click OK
4. Scan barcode of item that is damaged or has something missing.
5. Click on Check out to New User 2.
6. Take the printed slip and tuck it into the case.
7. Put the case in Kathie's blue box.
If it is not obvious what is wrong with the item, you can still put a sticky note on it with more detailed information.
Thanks!
Pam
