During fire evacuations staff are expected to pick up a paddle, clear the area and take the paddle to the south corridor on level one to hang the paddle up and report to the Building warden. We now have a new evacuation board so that IN ADDITION to the above procedure, floor wardens hanging the paddle should also slide the indicator for the floor cleared to the all clear position.

Thanks

ECON 213 students are looking time series data for their assignments. I have put up a page on ECON 213 Data Sources in Economics & Finance subject guide, which should help students with this assignments. If those students need help searching these databases, you can ask them to go through my PowerPoint Slides available in the Economics & Finance subject guide as well.

CD-ROM 04/6 has been installed on 2 library computers – 1 in the AV room and on the PC in the Den (nearest the whiteboard).
There are problems with both installs. On the PC in the AV room some reports aren’t opening. Shane is attempting a reinstall on the PC in the Den but has struck problems with licence codes. Best we can do is get students to use the AV PC.

Sarah Farrell and Micah Ferris have been given permission to film in the stairwells at the Central Library. The film will form part of the Sarah’s assessment. They will start this weekend and may require to film the following weekend as well.
The actress will be moving up and down the stairs as quickly as she can. I have spoken to them regarding health and safety issues and advised that they are not able to block off any access for our other customers. They are aware that the noise level must be kept to a minimum. The filming will be mainly up at floor 11 and then between 2 and 4. In general they have been advised that they must not disrupt the library users or library staff. They have been asked to report in to the Supervisor at the start of each lot of filming.
Any issues regarding this pair please contact me.
