Task Sharing

Do you find shelving an O.K. chore, but really dread the time you must spend shelf reading? Or vice versa? If so, consider task sharing with another employee. See Terry, Jeri, or Matt for details.

Are you remembering to log all patron questions on the Reference Portal? Please do. It's important. To BUSP. To YOU. Honest to goodness, it is!

Book Bon Voyage


Beginning either this week or next, you'll notice some people in our stacks removing books from our shelves and placing them in big gray tubs. Books over five years old that haven't been checked out several times recently will be leaving BUSP permanently for a home in the ALF. Our collection is being drastically reduced in order to prepare space for the upcoming renovation. Don't let the large number of books leaving scare you; your job will remain much the same. Since we're keeping all the books patrons actually use, you'll be checking out about the same number of books and shelving them when they return. Shelf reading should become a little easier. If you have any questions about the upcoming changes at BUSP, check with Terry or your supervisor.
