Donation Review
Barb Ellis will be here to do the next round of donation appraisals
this coming week. The donations are on a
marked shelf in the staff area.
HDL Project
Amazing but true… the HSL project is now processing “P” titles
and the end is in sight. Many thanks to
all who have worked so hard and long on this comprehensive project.
We do not have a firm date for the transfer of the physical
issues to the HDL yet, but once we do, we will be ready!
Client Fines and
Blocked Records
Once a client fine reaches 10.00, the record will be
automatically blocked from further circulation type transactions such as
renewals or checkouts. UC clients will
still have full remote access to online resources.
It is preferred for clients to clear their fines completely
whenever possible, but if this is difficult for the client, reducing
below 10.00 will allow them to borrow or renew items. I am also always
open to discuss situations that call for exceptions to the rules.
Neonatal Resuscitation
(NRP) titles: Alberta Health Services and UC copies
We have copies of this title both in the service area
(specifically for Alberta Health Services clients) and the main stacks (for UC
clients).
It is better for UC clients to borrow one of the NRP titles
from the main stacks, since these will act like any UC library book and can be
renewed online as long as there are no other holds.
The copies in the circ area are flagged in Sirsi for Alberta
Health Services staff. If a UC student
client wishes to borrow the Alberta Health Services copies, for example if no others are available, this can be done,
however staff will need to enter an override to allow the transaction to be
processed in Sirsi. It is important for
staff to inform the client that they will need to phone in to renew due to the
override required. Of course if clients have any trouble renewing they can
always call us for assistance.
