DMS E-Update

Dear all - A few bullet points for you...

WELCOME ABOARD
We are pleased to announce that Anna Houser has joined our team!  Anna comes to us from the Electronic Media Lab. She wanted to transfer to the DMS. She is a sophomore and a Photography/English major and, of course, knows Photoshop well. She will start with us on Friday and will be working Monday-Wednesdays during the daytime.  Welcome aboard, Anna, we're glad you're here!!
MICRO TEXT COUNT USE ON HOLD
Until further notice, it is no longer necessary to scan in microtext reels using the Milennium count use feature.   The reason for this is that there are some inventory issues going on that makes this procedure no longer needed for the forseeable future.  We'll let you know when things change, but for now, don't worry about scanning in microtext reels any more.

REGISTRATION BEGINS NOVEMBER 14TH
As you may be well aware, it's time to register for your Spring classes.  Your new class schedule may affect your current DMS work schedule.  Lynda will put a form in each of your folders (look for the green one) where you can request your new hours of availability.  Please do this as soon as possible so Lynda can try to get your preferred hours on the master schedule.

Also, a heads up that the DMS traffic will likely increase due to students trying to complete online registration so let's be prepared to handle the higher volume.

HOLIDAY LIBRARY HOURS
The library will be closed on November 24-26.  A reminder that if you are scheduled to work on Wednesday the 23rd, you are expected to work your shift.  Post a substitute slip on the bulletin board if you need to cover your shift.  If you do not get a sub, you will need to work the scheduled hours. 

You can see the official library calendar here.

DMS TRAINING QUIZZES
If you have not yet completed your training quiz, please see your shift leader who has your quiz with your name on it.  The quizzes will be given to you when you arrive on shift and must be turned in before leaving. 

DON'T FORGET TO TURN IN YOUR TIME SHEETS
Reminder that Tuesday, November 15th is the deadline to submit your time sheet (and/or web log data entry). 

LEADERSHIP QUOTE OF THE WEEK
