When putting a HOLD slip or a TRANSIT slip inside a book, it seems very easy to simply place it inside between the front cover and the first page. Well, that really isn't the best thing to do. When doing that, it increases the likelihood the slip will fall out . While, we may not notice it since we don't process a lot of books, the library mailroom staff certainly notice it. They asked us to make an effort to put the slip between pages farther inside the book.
Remember to place all HOLD slips or TRANSIT slips inside the book between middle pages. If you need to, take a look at the picture above to see the placement of that slip for an example.
If you have any questions, please speak with a supervisor.

I’m so busy!
I feel like I’m not doing enough!
The first statement is objectively true. I have lost count
of the number of jobs Joyce has and all the committees and organizations she
belongs to, along with a full load of classes. Which makes the second statement
objectively silly – but also a reflection of Joyce’s work ethic. Which we have
benefitted from greatly here at Business/SPEA. She has been a clutch player on
many occasions, volunteering to work times that no one else could over breaks
and extended hours. She has been a godsend as a Senior PSA, happily filling in
the gaps in the schedule that no one else was able to. When working during
extended hours last semester and dealing with the weird problems that Workflows
always has when our hours change, Joyce put together a very neat and very
detailed summary of all the check-outs that evening, all in an effort to make
it easier for us to sort out the chaos later.
Which was very true to form for her. She has always
approached everything she does for us with the attitude of, “What can I do? How
can I help?” For always going above and beyond, thank you, Joyce!"

The Spring Semester Business/SPEA Library Mandatory All-Staff Meeting is coming up on Friday, January 24th at 5:00pm. Please mark your calendars & plan on attending.
The meeting will start right after we close the library. We will try our best to not keep you very long. It’s a great time for the whole staff to get together. There will be staff introductions, someone from Library Administration will speak for a few minutes (I'm sure to tell us what an awesome library we have), we’ll give the “Above & Beyond” awards, go over a few important reminders, do a fun activity (with monetary prizes) and enjoy Mother Bear’s pizza. You will be paid for your time. Getting fed, paid & the chance to hang out with your awesome co-workers is a pretty sweet deal!!
Since this is a mandatory meeting for all library staff. If you have a conflict come up & won’t be able to attend, you must speak with Matt or Jeri in person.
Because we are having pizza, if you have any dietary restrictions, please let Matt, Jeri or Ilana know.
We look forward to seeing you at the meeting.
