During Intersessions
Student Change/Extention Forms
CRS: Blackout times
Determine the appropriate times to black out in CRS. Buillding closures, breaks ect. Go into the site and make those times inaccessible to users.
aBuilding Maintenance
Intersession is a good time to schedule maintenance on the building. Schedule in advance. Coordinate with Eric Scott.
Approaching the end of the semester.
About halfway through the semester we publish the hours for the next semester and intersession. Verify the hours with Donald and Eric for approval then coordinate with the webteam to have them posted online. In addition to our operating hours we have to be mindful of the effects they have on our ILS and checkout dates.
Evaluations
Evaluations go out every semester. Before finals divide up the students between the Access Services supervisory staff and complete the form. Towards the end of the semester sit down with the individual. Go over their evaluation, ask if they have any questions, offer them a copy. Keep and store the originals.
Schedules
Put a call for schedules out as individuals begin signing up for classes. They will not all come in at once. Be aware of the number of hours you have available and begin populating the schedule. This usually takes a few weeks, schedules change and constraints fluxuate.
Finals
Hours
Determine the hours that the Library will stay open both during finals and intercession.
Lights and Locks
Contact Frank Fimbrez and John Elliot regarding the changing Library hours during final exams and intersession. It's important that the lights and doors match our operating hours.
Advertising
Utilizing digital and physical signage as well as Happenings if needed let the users know that the Library will be changing it's hours.
CRS
Double check to ensure that the changing hours are reflected in CRS. Note that most of our bookings during finals are proctored exams for disability services.
Student Party
Towards the end of the semester we typically budget for a party to reward our student assistants for their hard work and to build a greater sense of community. Determine the budget and make sure that food is ordered.
