Important Library Things to know as the fall semester starts

 

Class or Work Schedule Changes -- Has your class schedule changed (added or dropped class) and you’ll need to adjust your work schedule for the remainder of the semester? For those issues/questions, please see Matt or send him an email.

Library Main Phone Number – The library phone number is 812-855-1957. Please add this number into the contacts on your phone, in the event we need to contact you or you need to contact us.

Running Late to Work -- If you are running late to work a shift, please call the library at 812-855-1957 to let the supervisors know. Please do not text or call any individual supervisor directly.

Unable to Work a Shift & Need Someone to Cover a Shift for You -- Starting this year, we are using the LibStaffer platform to handle all sub requests. If you are unable to work your assigned shift, please log into LibStaffer and post your shift as available as soon as possible. Everyone who works in this library receives email about open shifts, so we’ll know about potential holes in the schedule.

If you are willing and able to work a shift for fellow colleague, please log into LibStaffer and pick up that shift. Once you pick up a shift, you are responsible for either working the shift or posting it as available.

You can’t work more than 29 hours per week. If you have more than one IU job, they will all count toward the 29-hour rule.

You can’t work while you are scheduled to be in class.

Timesheet Issues -- If you forgot to clock in/out or need to have your timesheet fixed in some way, please see Jeri or send her an email.

Questions about Payroll -- Please reach out to either Jeri or Matt. They can help you figure it out.

Staff Directory -- Each semester, we put together a list of all library staff’s phone numbers & email addresses. This is an internal document for staff use only. We do suggest you put the phone number for the library along with the numbers of all full-time staff in your phone contacts. So if you need to call the library at any time you’ll already have the number and if the staff gives you a call or text for any reason, you’ll know it’s us and not a spam call.

Birthdays -- Celebrating birthdays is always fun, right? Here at Business/SPEA we celebrate staff birthdays on the first Wednesday of each month complete with treats and a sign listing who had/had a birthday that month. Be on the lookout for someone asking about your birthday for the official list.

Questions about the Library, Your Job or Most Anything -- Please feel free to reach out to any of the supervisors. Remember, there are no dumb questions. Think of it this way, you won’t know an answer unless you ask us. We’ll do our best to answer them or find someone who can help.
