Notes from the meeting on 8/24:
Things have gone really well.
Some summer professor’s have really loud voices.
A few complaints about English being spoken in the libraries.
The Helpdesk printer sign is universally acclaimed. Add one at Armstrong?
Mills had a few bumps, very low requesting activity.
First two weeks of LS were very quiet – re-adjust library hours next summer?
Film screening still creates the most problems for circ.
The DVD scanning machine is dead, probably won’t be replaced. Elin is checking with Adam.
BL – Smooth
very little ILL activity – mostly NExpress
fewere BL patrons came down to the Main library
Equipment:
we need more dongles
faculty/staff laptops are “hairy”
digital voice recorders also high use
Problem: item booked by coordinator, picked up by someone else
very low iPod use
Dan will collect item stats for summer equipment
NON-SUMMER PORTION:
– Todd will create a manual check-out form and add documentation to the Wiki.
– No major updates from the teams
– ADA says we have to give access to the back doors of the Main Library – stay tuned for procedures

– Please comment on the workflow reveiws on the blog
– Dan will post soon about the possibilities and limitations of the requesting system overhaul/dismantling
