Community Computer Registration begins Wednesday 6-13-18

Hello Team,

Starting Wednesday 6/13/18 we will start registering users using a registration software named Cybrarian. The software has been added to all of the computers. I have trained the staff and a couple of the students. There will be instructions for registering at the front desk. All of the previous passes we handed out will be deleted on Wednesday morning.

A few things to know:

1. We will need a photo ID to register new users. We will make exceptions for students who come in with their parents. If the user does not have a photo ID we CAN Not register them.

2. We will have single use passes for patrons coming in for one time access for things like printing concert tickets.

3. Users will get 2 hours per day. This falls inline with the other public libraries that give 2 sessions of 1 hour each per day. WE CAN NOT GIVE USERS MORE TIME.

4. Barcode/User names are not case sensitive.

Let me know if you have any questions or have anything to add.

Troy

 

Summer Changes

Hello Team,

There are a few changes I wanted everyone to be aware of.

Chicano Collection- The Chicano Collection is in Stack Maintenance during renovation. If a patron wants an item from the collection we will retrieve it. We will need a call number to retrieve the material, so instruct the patron on how to find the call number if they do not have one.

 

Cluster 9 Community Computer Changes- Starting next week we will be registering all of the community users. They will need a government ID for us to register them. Training on registration will start this week (6/5/2018) after all of the supervisors are trained.

 

Summer Groups- SDSU Conference services run programs all summer long for different groups.  For groups that are in the dorms for longer than a week will receive library computer access in the research services area. Lists of the groups and the participants will be sent to me and I will print and place them at the center desk. To access the computers, the users will put in the computer name (White Label on the lower left of the monitor) and the password “Summer2018”.
