BSIC Quiz Time

Library pong at the All-Staff Meeting was great fun, but we didn't have time to get to all of the questions.  So it's time for part one of a "take-home" quiz to not only test your BSIC knowledge, but to also see who is reading this. 


Send me (dmgunkel@iu.edu) an email with your answers to all four questions below by next Thursday, September 14.


1. When can a room reservation be extended?   


2. A woman from a nearby town, who is not affiliated with IU, wants to access an ebook from our collection.  Is she allowed to do this?


3. You can't find a reserve book on the shelf.  What are the steps you would take to see if it's checked out?


4. When should a LibCal booking record be updated to show that the user showed up?

Pictures

I'll be coming around this week to get pictures for our staff directory.  This is only required for all of our new staff, but if anyone would like a new photo for the directory let me (Danielle) know. 

Labor Day

Just a reminder...we will be closed on Monday, September 4th for the Labor Day holiday. 


We will be open Saturday and Sunday, however, so make sure you're here for your shifts or have emailed to request a sub if you'll be gone. 

August Birthdays!

Here at the BSIC we celebrate any birthday's during a month, on the last week of that month.  Fortunately Gary has a birthday in August (17), so we'll have cupcakes to celebrate this Thursday.  Remember we're open until midnight, so be sure to stop in for a cupcake even if you're not working Thursday.


Happy birthday, Gary!

Where's the scanner?

Take a walk back to the computers and you may notice something missing...the scanner. 


While we investigate if and when a scanner will return to the BSIC, please direct anyone in need of a scanner to the copier/printer/scanner just outside of the BSIC by the stairs. 

All-Staff Meeting

The Fall semester All-Staff Meeting is schedule for Friday, September 1 at 6:00PM.
 

This meeting will give you a chance to test your memory about the work in the BSIC and maybe even learn something new.  We’ll also have pizza, introductions to everyone, and hopefully some fun!  You should be free to go no later than 7:30PM. 

This is a mandatory meeting.  If you cannot attend, you must clear your absence with Danielle (dmgunkel@iu.edu).   

 

Welcome to a New School Year

We're so happy to have many returning BSIC veterans, and to welcome several new faces, too! 

And with an eclipse on the first day of classes, I think it's going to be a pretty great school year!
