Computer shut down
We started turning off the computers on Monday and so far things are going okay. We have two issues that need to be addressed.
One problem we have run into is the race track computers are not rebooting and also the the opac in the YA area next to the small meeting room. Please no longer turn those off, just turn off the monitor each night. The problem may be that they are on the wireless system and the reboot isn't working efficiently. Any way please leave them on and turn off just the monitor.
The other issue that I want to remind you of is that the person who opens must check all the computers. Tim is turning them on but some take longer than others to come up, therefore, he may not get back to them right away. So it is up to the circ opener to make sure everything is up and running or if there is a problem to let Rosalie know. Tim has been fantastic alerting Rosalie or me about problems but it is the opener's responsibility to make sure everything is patron ready by 10.
Thanks for your efforts. Stay tuned for more adjustments as we continue to see how thing go.
