coffee machine use by students

Just a reminder that the coffee machine near the newspapers is not for student use during school hours by request of the school.
Please, if you see students using it, let them know that they are not to use it during school hours, and let me know if they ignore you and use it anyway. Karla

placing holds



If a customer requests a title that is a SAPL On Order record and Onkaparinga do not have a copy on order, you can still add our customer to the request list. The SAPL ON Order item type was created especially to allow all customers to reserve any item on Symphony regardless of their home library. Even though in principle our customers would have to wait the 90 days, we actually run regular reports to check the SAPL on orders against our customer holds so that we can order copies for them. This way we can manage our customer holds and orders. Susan B

lost property

I have been through the lost property and culled its contents. Thanks to those people who had stuck notes to items with the date the item was found, this makes the process much easier. If you find anything, please stick a note to the item with the date (if the note isn’t staying on properly, please write on your note what the item is too, so we can match the items up with notes if they fall off).
I have moved the Lost Property box into the Check In room under the desk. I have also put a note on the box where you can write the date you check it, so we can keep a track of when it was last checked (anyone can check it!). Any items tonight that did not have a note, I am giving the benefit of the doubt and have put today’s date on, so if they are still there in 3 months you can dispose of them.
Any items older than 3 months that could not be given to the Salvos etc, have been put in the bin. Karla
