1. Blue-Ray: Will put these in with the DVDs for now. They will be labelled in large print as Blue-Ray. If we get more donated, we will consider creating a new location. We don't plan to actively purchase blue-ray.
2. Market Place: Deb does not need an account for the few times she has to process ILL or billed items we pay. Asita will process these using the "after the fact" form.
3. Disaster plan: For good practice, staff will look at our areas and how we might handle a three day internet loss. Assume people will still want resources/services.
4. Auxillary account (fklibsub1 and 2): These will still be associated with Sofia's email account, however, email to these accounts will be forwarded to Brenda. When Brenda leaves during the summer, they will be forwarded to Katie.
5. Deliver and p/u to/from homebound patrons: discussed this more as something retired or other organizations such as meals on wheels would handle. Feel like it would be a popular program, but not necessarily one the university library would take on. could have something like a bookmobile, but again, something that would need support from the community/town.
6. Front desk coverage: Brenda will cover Deb's area on Thursday mornings and during her lunches and meetings (essentially any time Deb is away for more than 30 minutes). Need to get remote desktop capabilities on Deb's computer if it isn't already there.
7. Serials checkout: We need to continue thinking about process, billing, and access. For now, the template will be updated to have $10 put in the cost field so the system won't automatically default to $45. Patrons who lose or damage the periodical will have to pay a totle of $20 ($10 charge plus billing and processing fees). Patrons who return item after being billed, will still pay $5. Still need to consider checkout process. We will try doing a simple fill in paper form and give to Brenda later for checkout. This will reduce wait time at the front desk. [4/21/2014 - Sofia and Katie decided that if we could get the magazine or journal issue from the bank, then only the $5 billing fee will apply. Once serials department confirms they could get the issue and the issue is here, then the item can be returned in the circ module leaving the $5 fee.]
8. Assisted Learning Station: Sofia needs to decide if we need to keep the cpu used at the assisted learning station. Need to also spec out a new scanner for the lab (think about where it should go, do we use the cpu previously with assisted learning station, etc.).
9. Copier hard drives: these are purged before leaving campus
10. Confidentiality and lib chat: What is the protocol for making sure we are talking with the person who says he/she is who they are before providing sensitve information such as mainestreet ID or URSUS barcode? Make sure to check mulitple forms of information, not just name. Examples of the types of info are: courses student is currently taking (MaineStreet), email address (MaineStreet and Millennium), home address, phone number (which if they call, you can generally verify from your phone), etc. If the patron fails on a number of these, or takes a while to answer, do not give out the information. Let them know you will pass on their concern to IT who will handle this problem when they are open next (or if during regular hours - pass on to or call IT).
Once you have verified, if you are able, email the information to the student. If they are not able to access email, send the info via chat while letting them know you are sending sensitive data.
11. Extended hours for Praxis: we will no longer have extended hours the friday before Praxis testing due to low numbers using the library. Fall 2014 will be the first time we drop this. We will still have extended hours this spring since we waited to long to change it (extended hours times/day is on the web site).
