Consumer Reports Magazine
At present we are only receiving one copy of Consumer Reports which is the reference copy and it is at the circ desk. We do not have the Jan. 2011 copy but it is available online. When we start receiving 2 copies we will put one on the shelf in the rotunda and I will blog again.

New Jersey Biographies
As mentioned at today's staff meeting, 4th Graders @ St. Elizabeths may be in looking for New Jersey Biographies. We have a record set which lists 80 J and YA bios entitled "New Jersey-Biographies." You could also refer them to the NJ Hall of Fame (http://www.njhalloffame.org/) if they want to look further.

Office 2010 on public pcs--starting to install
Office 2010 is now slowing being installed on the public pcs. The career center is done as well as some of the pod to the left of the circ desk. All pcs with Office 2010 are marked on the tower, so if someone is having trouble, check the tower to verify the version. Assume the unmarked ones still have Office 2003 on them.
Some of the pcs cannot support office 2010. They will stay as 2003 until they can be swapped out. I will mark them accordingly, when I figure out which ones they are.

They're here!!
1040 Books have arrived at last! The majority of the tax forms and booklets are here and I will continue to put things out as they arrive. We will not be getting any NJ tax forms again this year. I have posted a sign with a phone number and an email address by the tax forms in case anyone asks.

VITA stuff
Any notes for Bob Baker or any of the VITA volunteers can be put in the VITA mail box in our mailbox area. I will train Bob to check there whenever he comes in. Also VITA volunteers will have forms, etc. that need to be turned in, so direct them to that mailbox.
The volunteers need to pass their IRS tests, then they are ready to go. Bob finished his last night, so he should be booking appointments soon.
