Reserve item to be retrieved

Just wanted you all to be aware that Paul Vogler, an instructor here at GPC, will be by in a couple days to retrieve a book (Experiencing Jazz, item # 952) that he submitted to be put on reserve. When he does, please let me know so I can remove the title from our OPAC Reserves collection. Thank you.

Susan

EDIT
Mr. Vogler came by and picked up his reserve item. He indicated that he may bring it back in the future to put on reserve again.

Logging in on ADP

F.Y.I. (I received this via email):

We were just notified that ADP will be applying a patch to the University System of Georgia's ADP eTime module during their maintenance window tonight sometime between 2:00 to 5:00 am. The impact to our institution will be extended login periods when logging in to eTime for the first time after the patch is applied. We are being told that this could take an additional 2 to 3 minutes to load eTime. Please be patient as you login to eTime the first time after this patch is applied.

Thanks,

ADP Project Team

Blue Screen on Laptop L-5

We had a student return laptop L-5 to the Circulation Desk reporting that when she started it up, it had a blue screen similar to this:














I restarted the computer and it booted up fine. However, if this problem reoccurs on laptop L-5 (or if you notice that this is happening repeatedly to any of the other laptops), please notify one of the full-time Circulation staff members and we'll report it to OIT and have them take a look at it. Thanks!

Update - Problem with online laptop renewals

Ameet reported back in early September that patrons were not able to renew their laptops online (See September 9th post.) It turns out this glitch is a known bug, and has been fixed in v. 7.1.1 of the OPAC. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like we'll be upgrading to 7.1.1 anytime soon.

This means that you will need continue to inform everyone that they will have to bring laptops back to the desk for renewal.

You may also want to warn them that, due to a system bug, they will be unable to renew any of their other materials, online, as long as they have the laptop charged out. They should, however, still be able to place requests on materials in the OPAC, check the GALILEO password, etc.

New Delivery Service for GIL Express

We will be transitioning over to a new delivery system for GIL Express (for items normally delivered via UPS). This will go into effect on October 12th. The company responsible for picking up and dropping off GIL Express items is STAT Courier. Clarkston Circulation's delivery man's name is Eddie...Say hi to him if you get the chance!
