This blog will help those working the Information Services Desk stay informed about happenings at the desk, common problems that we are encountering, technology issues in the labs, and other fun facts.
Students from this class should be asking for me to remove certain videos from reserve so they can check them out. They should only be coming 8-5pm, Monday through Friday.
Just want to let everyone know that courtesy borrowers do not get a log in to use the computers. They can only use the 3 computers in the main lobby that can only access the internet, no others.
The students from Gerald Gems' MLS-538 class will be coming in to look for the article The Prep Bowl in the Journal of Sport History. He has it labeled as from volume 22, but it is actually volume 23. We have it in the bound section of the periodicals. If it's not there it may be on the periodicals cart or in the photocopy room.
Jeanne received a question this morning about the availability of certain software in the labs on campus. We knew the library labs didn't have it, so we sent the student to Carnegie because we were sure it would be in one of the labs over there. After the student walked away, Jeanne had the great idea to check the ITS website.
She found that ITS does, in fact, have a list of software available in different labs that might come in handy if you ever receive a question like this. It is available here.
