More Computer Stuff

All,

First, please note that the laptops have been taken in for the upgrade to Windows 7. Tri will return them on Monday, the 23rd.

Also, please do not shut down the public workstations. At the end of the night, just turn off the monitors. If they are shut down, they may ask for a password, which we do not have.

Thanks,
John

New public computer configuration

All,

Please note that we are reconfiguring the public computers (revised 8/19/10):

The station that formerly was the sign-in for the research room is now a regular workstation. Station #16 (in the mesh area) will be removed leaving a table suitable for laptops. Station #22 will also be removed, so laptops can be plugged in there as well.

The catalog/database terminals are now on the opposite side of juvenile paperbacks from where they were (formerly #12, #13 and #14). There will now be three.

The new numbering will be as follows:

The wall by the sign-in kiosk will have #1 - #6.

The arc near adult fiction will have #7 - #11.

The small arc opposite language learning (formerly catalog computers) will have #12 and #13.

Stations #14 and #15 will be flanking the three catalog computers.

The tables in the teen area will have #16 - #20.

The research room will have #21 - #26.

Confused? Let me know and I'll be glad to explain it.

Thanks!
John

The CMC logo


Here is the logo Carol was talking about. It was designed by Monique and Amanda from Meyer.

The link for CMC T-shirt

The link I gave you in the previous post is from an email, so you will have to sign onto your account to view the link. I will also print out a copy in color for everyone that will be at my desk.

Thanks,

Combined Municipal Campaign 2011 - Please Read!

Hello everyone,

I am one of HPL's co-coordinators for the 2011 Combined Municipal Campaign (CMC), which is an annual drive to raise funds from city employees to be contributed to various charitable organizations of their choice. It begins in August and continues through October. The slogan this year is "Find Your Cause." T-shirts are only $5.00!! Click on the link to see what the t-shirts look like (I think they will appeal to men and women). I MUST TURN IN THE T-SHIRT ORDER AND MONEY BY AUGUST 30, so please give me your order/money ASAP.

On the link you can also see from what charities there are to choose. Even a dollar or two every paycheck can make a difference to your favorite charity.

Thanks so much for your time,
Carol R.
