There is a pink returns box for a Pacific students’ survey on the Help Desk. I said it was ok to leave it there until Friday.

Noise in Central Library
Thanks to those staff who who have completed the first three “noise patrols” of the week and to the shelvers for distributing the notices this morning. The Library certainly seems a lot quieter today. Even if you are not officially rostered but encounter noisy groups please remind them of the quiet study policy. There is one vacancy on the roster for Thursday 11-12.

Ricoh printers in CL
If there is a fault with the printers (i.e. smudging etc), don’t ask the Copy Centre for help. Call the 0800 number on the printers and quote the serial number. The serial number in the Den printer is located inside the toner cartridge panel.
Toner cartridges should be send out automatically as toner becomes low but as a safeguard we need to keep at least 2 spare cartridges under the desk. I have ordered two extras for now. If you see that there are no spares there is an automatic toner ordering number on the printers. Let me know if there are problems.
Today the Den printer has a fault and a technician has been contacted (3.15).

NZ Statistics Collection – Level 3
The NZ statistics section of the Government Publications on Level 3 is currently being classified into LC. Trudy was managing this project but as she has left, progress will be a bit slower. At the moment there is a mix of classified and yet to be classified material, and some material is away being labelled and barcoded. If you can’t find something, please see Janette. Thanks to Serials for undertaking this project which will result in material being much easier to find as it will be in strict classification order.
Child obesity statistics
There have been several questions about child obesity in NZ today. There’s a recent report by the Ministry of Social Development
CL printer
One of the LibCen printers is out of toner and there is no spare cartridge available. I’ve rung the urgent number and new toner should arrive tomorrow morning. In the meantime, the printer is turned off with an out of order sign displayed.

Printer problem
The printer nearest the Help Desk requires a maintenance kit to be replaced, so has an Out of order sign on it. I have phoned Raeco who are sending the kit out on an overnight courier, so it will be tomorrow before the printer is working again.
Libraries and Web 2.0
The latest publication from Educause is entitled The Academic Library in a 2.0 World.
You will need to create an Educause profile if you want to read these documents. I have printed a copy if anyone wants to read it.

Printer in Central
The LibCen printer closest to the Help Desk has a fault and has been turned off. Raeco are sourcing a part from Auckland which will be installed on Tuesday morning. In the meantime please keep the printer turned off with the Out of Order sign on top.

Here are the instructions for cancelling print jobs – for example, those occasions when Blackboard malfunctions and churns out hundreds of copies of the same document.
At the printer:
1. Press the Job Reset button (on left of screen)
2. Press Options (using the grey down arrow button)
3. On the Reset Job screen, select Current – (use the grey down arrow button)
4. Select Yes to Confirm cancellation
Everything should revert to normal.
