The search box in the library home page is not functioning. I called it into IDT and Sandy said they are working on it. In the mean time if someone is looking for a book go to libpac.sdsu.edu and if someone is looking for an “Articles or Journals” have them click on the Article and Journal link under “Find”.
Month: January 2015
Computers
The computers are down everywhere in the library. It has already been called in.
Guest Wi-Fi access change
We’ve been having a lot of guest library users telling us they’re having difficulty with wireless access on their personal devices – they’re being asked for a log in and password which is causing some confusion. Apparently they are supposed to enter a phone number that can receive texts, and they will be sent a text with a code they can use to get access. If they do not have a mobile device that receives texts, they can go to the SCC Helpdesk for code, or they can email the Help Desk (more info later)
Back Door Patrol
Not sure if maintenance stacks door is supposed to lock at close instead of just shutting. If so it was unlocked at closing.

CSU San Marcos no longer part of INN-Reach Visiting patron check out
CSU SM switched library management systems (they no longer use Sierra) so they aren’t on the visiting patron drop down menu anymore. So for those students and other CSU students we fill out mutual use papers for them. -Claire
Circ Blog Would Not connect to server
The Circulation Blog would not connect to the server. The message that came up said “P3 could not connect to WordPress Server”. I believe this happened because I was looking at a couple of different themes on Jan 23rd, 2015. “P3” is the current theme I am using for this blog. To fix the Issue I went to Dashboard-> Themes and clicked on P3 to customize it. In customization I went to the very bottom tab and clicked on Static Page and changed the option to static Page. I then changed the option back to latest post and clicked saved and publish. Doing this fixed the issue.
Adjunct Faculty
Hello Everyone!
There has been a lot of calls from Adjunct Faculty who are expired in our system. Their records are updated automatically from information received from the HR office. They will not be automatically updated until all of their paperwork is turned in and processed at HR.
What we can do in the mean time is update their record to January 21st, 2015 to give the Adjunct Faculty time for the paperwork to be processed. If you have any questions please let me know.
