public WiFi for students

If students are having issues accessing Public WiFi on the MacBook Pro’s they will need to set the location to Public Library (under the apple symbol) before changing wireless networks. The instructions for this are on the info handout in the laptop folder and on COOLnet regarding using WiFi on these Macs at school, in the library and at home. Nathan

shelving changes - children's library

Just letting you know there has been a change in the children’s library - the Audio books and the CD’s have made a swap in where they were on the slatted wall.  This is so we can use the wall for information for parents. Jo

headset trial

We are trialling the use of a hands free headset at the sit-down desk on the library floor to see if it is helpful if you need to move from the phone for any reason.

 For example if you receive a call and need to check the shelves:

       Ask your contact to hold the line for one moment

·         Place the handset on the desk in front of the phone (don’t hang up)
·         Pick up the headset, place on your head with the earpiece over your left or right ear
·         Press the button on the earpiece
·         Ask if your contact is there and continue the conversation
·         To end the call, press the button on the earpiece
·         Hang up the handset

Practice with a colleague by calling an extension in the workroom. Nathan

Publisher tip

Something to be aware of when printing publisher files on public PC’s, it will always print in colour (charging $1.50) unless you make the change from RGB to grayscale in the Office print menu. Nathan

spine label changes

Just letting everyone know the Asterix graphic novels have had their spine lablels changed from GN GOS to GN AST. If they are coming through the chute with the old spine label pleaes put into ON-REPAIR-SF. Also I have changed the Reference Collection A4 shelf end poster to reflect the Non-fiction DVD’s as this is where they live. Jo
