Hayden Caught in the Act

Hayden was Caught in the Act last week of doing more than his fair share of organizing our very messy shelves holding returned books.  Thank you, Hayden!  Your work allowed us to quickly get the books back out into the stacks for our guests.

Gentle Reminders...

Please e-mail Terry (treynold@indiana.edu) after you have read this post.

Please remember to use the Reference Portal.  It's your job security!

Please remember that because we're all professionals here, there is no eating at the desk. If you need to have a few bites or a meal, please use our break area.  If you are the only one at the desk or if it is a busy time, let your supervisor know so he/she can help cover while you chow down.  Please do not go hungry!

Please remember that you and the work you do are so appreciated!

Happy Birthday to Our January Babies!

Stop by BUSP next Wednesday to get your cupcake/goodie as we celebrate our January birthdays:

Christina, January 1
Clayton, January 2
Brian, January 20

New & Improved Red Manual

The red circulation handbook has been new and improved and divided into categories to make it easier for you to find the information you need.  You'll find the following categories inside the notebook:

Policies and Standards
Contact Information
Directional Information
Group Rooms
Book Call Numbers
Circulation/Workflows Functions
Technology How-To's
Lost & Found

Take a look at it when you have some free time at the desk. In addition to this resource, do remember to use your supervisor's brain.  He/she can answer your questions and our guests' questions.
