Email Training

Most of you will have email training either this week or next week. I'll post a schedule tomorrow about it but I'm going to go ahead and copy it onto here as well just in case you see it here.

Amanda – March 20 at 9:00 a.m.

April – March 13 at 1:30 p.m.

Kitt – March 13 at 1:30 p.m.

Noelle – March 14 at 1:00 p.m.

Kim – March 20 at 1:30 p.m.

go to City Hall, 3rd Floor Multipurpose Room. Stepping off the elevator, turn right and through the glass doors.

Ryan and Camila, I'll have to talk to you about this, the days when they are doing the training are your days off. Also, I don't think I've told Noelle about this blog yet, if anyone sees this before I get a chance, can you fill her in please? Thanks!

March Meeting Cancelled

I had planned to have a meeting March 3rd but that is the night the ghost hunters want to come so I will not be here at 10 am. I'll reschedule the meeting as soon as I can figure out a good day for it.

Monday and Wednesday nights

I need someone to volunteer to work Monday and Wednesday nights until closing. If no one volunteers I'll have to assign. I will assign those who don't usually work nights if I have to do it.

Next meeting date

Hi guys, the next meeting will be December 17th at noon, again in the auditorium. See you then!

Christmas Party/ Goodbye Party

We're having a party December 10th for birthdays/Christmas/ and to say goodbye to Sarah and Jennifer :( So if you would like to bring goodies you're welcome to.

Those Pesky Dvd's

Apparently a stack of dvd's made it to the shelf with the dvd's included. We've found one that the dvd had already been stolen out of the sleeve named Donnie Darko. I'm not sure if it was just that one or if there are more but I've been asked to ask you to please pay more attention and make sure that when you're shelving a set of dvd's double check that the dvd's are not in the cases. Thank you most awesomest of pages. (Yes I know I misspelled that word horribly.)

By the way I'm working on planning the next page meeting. I'm thinking the same day as D&D might work well for it, so it will probably be in the auditorium December 17th at noon. I'll have to get it ok'd by the higher-ups first though so I'll post more info on that later.

Shelving assignments and meeting date

I have finished the shelving assignments. There are a few sections that are not assigned, such as the oversize books. Some areas are still for everyone to shelf read and shelve in. These areas are:

Audiovisual Materials (music, dvd's, audiobooks, etc)
Oversize books (circulating and non-circulating)
Reference books
Paperbacks
Storage
New books and rentals

I've based the sections on circulation statistics so some of them are broken up quite strangely. I've included the circulation numbers on your assignment sheet so you can see what I gave you and why I gave you what I did. I tried to go mostly by what you had requested earlier in your shelf reading list. Those were not set in stone, these are.

If you have problems with your sections including getting them finished please let me know. If you want to change sections with someone else, you both will have to come talk to me about it. I tried to make the areas as even as possible as far as circulation goes. Some of you may have bigger areas but those areas do not circulate as much. These sections are yours and yours alone, for now do not help each other shelve. If you run out of things to do there's always shelf reading and working in the unassigned areas.

These assignments will begin this Saturday, the 19th. That will also be the meeting date. I have a program that day as well so it will have to be a semi quick meeting, Camila I will have to catch you some other time. We will meet in the auditorium at noon this Saturday the 19th.

If you have questions/comments/complaints etc please let me know ahead of time so I can answer or address them as quickly and easily as possible during the meeting.
