A few things to take into
consideration at the beginning of the year please.
There will be new students who are not sure of procedure
when coming into library, or new senior students who are not aware of showing
their timetable. Please explain to them. If you are unclear on these, please
see me.
· Teachers will be using different movement passes in the
diaries now. These are smaller and less specific than the old ones. Please
accept these as long as teacher has filled in all details.
· New students will not have an ID card until after school
photos have been taken (end of Feb). Please allow these students to borrow
using their diary. If students have lost their ID from last year, there is no
point in ordering a new one now, so they can borrow with their diary too.
· If anyone asks, the re-imaged laptops will need to be collected
from school IT, not here.
· Booking the LibICT or Macbook Trolley area need to be done
on DayMap (DayMap replaces edumate).
We cannot do this for teachers.
Most
importantly though
Please be friendly and welcoming to students. Student
survey feedback has indicated that students do feel as though library staff can
be rude to them. Please treat students as you would like to be treated
yourself, and help them out as much as possible. We never know what is
happening in our students’ lives so a friendly face might just make their day. Karla
