[Circulation] Shelf reading starts this week!

[Sam Sharp]

Hi everyone!

Starting this week, we’re going to have you shelf reading up in the 
stacks. This will entail making sure that sections of the stacks are 
tidy and in call number order as well as correcting any issues you may find.

You can find a full explanation of the procedures involved on the 
InfoBar LibGuide 
<https://resourceguides.hampshire.edu/c.php?g=759642&p=5447838>. 
Suzanne, Olivia, or I will train you on shelf reading before your first 
shift doing it, but I ask that you read the procedures beforehand to 
familiarize yourself with it.

Progress will be tracked via a Google Sheet 
<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BUQZZaeD8o3wO_B55A4kK7ndY6wXYU8VxDj9S-bHyuM/edit?usp=sharing>where 
you’ll record at what call number you started and ended shelf reading, 
along with other information about the shift.

This project is crucial to ensuring our stacks are in a state where the 
collection can be accessed and used to its full potential. It’s very 
important that this work is done correctly, so Olivia and I will be 
spot-checking your work as you go.

As always, we’re here to answer any questions you may have, so please 
don’t hesitate!

Best,
Sam
