Library 101 classes will be running again in Semester 2.
Please promote them to students and academics whenever the chance arises. They can be booked through the usual course booking page on the library website.
In particular please promote the 4 College-specific APA classes that we are running in partnership with Academic Skills Centre. The importance of offering these APA classes is highlighted by the large volume of APA enquiries noted in the recent AskLive report.
Please note my email address has changed from nicolas.scullin@canterbury.ac.nz to nick.scullin@canterbury.ac.nz. The new email address should cause less confusion when trying to look me up in the outlook address book as nobody knows me as Nicolas.
Update on progress with some issues with the new archives OPAC.
When a user registers and requests and item on Kā Kohika it now automatically prints their request slip on the MB staff printer.
Even more exciting is that it no longer says Otago University at the top of the request slip and it now includes a shelf location for the archival material.
Unfortunately, manually printing a request still results in an Otago branded slip with no shelf location.
