You will have noticed that all Front Desk Library PCs are scheduled for a P: drive move starting at 8 pm tonight. I have pointed out to the Project Office that most of the branches are open to 9 pm, and asked if it matters that our log-off does not happen till then.
The Project Office possibly won’t know and will need to consult with ICTS. Assume that a 9 pm log-off is OK and if they have to do the 3 or 4 logins affected at some later stage, we can plan it for a time that will work.
Romy Forrer has accepted a fixed term contract until late March to work with Library Support Services as an eServices Assistant. She will be working mainly with Donna and I and we look forward to her joining us.
Simon White (CEPS) has dropped off some tools we can use for unjamming the heat binder
A metal “key” (used to open the binder case) and forceps (for removing mangled strips without burning fingers) are now labelled and living in the cupboard behind the desk (right next to the boxes of binding strips and staples). Please make sure these go back here if you have used them.
We are completely out of caffeine here at central and the coffee we ordered has gone missing on campus somewhere (hopefully be traced tomorrow morning).
Could we borrow a cup or so of instant coffee from anyone on the Ilam campus ( I will run over to grab it)?
The following scam has been widely reported on campus. If anyone has received it they should delete it. Do not click on the link (the link below has been deliberately obfuscated).

ICT Service Desk – your first point of contact for ICT Services
Can Central Library staff please check their desks and work areas for any teaspoons that belong in the Central Library staffroom. At the moment we have only 2 teaspoons left in the staffroom for staff to use. If you do find any, please return them to the staffroom as soon as possible.
This is mainly important for those of you doing circulation – not so important for others.
If you started Horizon before 8.30 and got a ‘middle-tier’ error message, could you please restart Horizon. If you don’t, you are likely to have problems handling requests.
Payment Plus does not appear to be working today, as we are receiving a lot of “Library payment failed” error messages through the Library email account. I have contacted Peter Kennedy, but he is unable to fix the problem remotely. Peter and ICTS will look into it on Monday morning.
