FROM THE COMPUTER ROOM:
Report As Discussed At April 12 ILL Meeting:

There's a new report titled
“Work Phone B4 Phone " that runs daily and is available from the CCS Reports Web Page. It lists ALL patrons whose WORKPHONE field appears before their 'PHONE field' within their patron record.
When the WORKPHONE field appears before the PHONE field, the WORKPHONE field content will display/print ( in Workflows ) instead of the PHONE field content when printing 'Hold Slips'. If the patron prefers to be notified via the WORKPHONE, then no change is necessary. If the patron prefers to be notified via the PHONE field, you can edit the record to place the PHONE field first. On the address tab change the field name WORKPHONE to PHONE and the field name PHONE to WORKPHONE. You'll have to move/interchange the phone numbers as well. Then click Modify User .

THIS WEEK’S HOMEWORK:
The April 1 issue of Library Journal has the annual article on the library automation marketplace, plus a short supplement with user satisfaction ratings (pp. 30-45). These are well worth a few minutes, and food for thought.

WELCOME to Karen Danczak Lyons, who starts as Director at Evanston on Monday, April 16!

CCS MEETING NEXT WEEK:

Wed., 4/18, CCS, 9:30: SCRAP
