library shelving and carrels
by Ann Nieuwkoop 17 Mar '17

17 Mar '17

The first week of April we are condensing our library collection from 4 floors to 2 in preparation of a renovation and new library construction. We will have shelving and study carrels from those two floors available for sale. After the 18 mos construction period we will have 2 more floors of shelving and carrels available, Has anyone ever sold leftover library shelving? or know of ways to find future homes for it? This is Worden Furniture, wood, walnut stained shelving. Once I have an idea of the best way to make this available I can post specifics. Thanks in advance for your shared knowledge. -- ANN NIEUWKOOP Interim Director of Beardslee Library ph 616.392.8555 x141 101 East 13th Street, Holland MI 49423-3622 [image: WTS_logo_email.png]

Auto-Graphics & MeLCat statistical figures
by T.A. Cutler Memorial Library 17 Mar '17

17 Mar '17

This question is specifically for libraries who use Auto-Graphics VERSO with NICP and MeLCat. In running my statistical reports in VERSO for January, I noticed under the statistical section usually reserved for MeLCat transactions a significantly abnormal "renewal" statistic for the month, and then traced it back to two dates: January 3rd (254 renewals in a collection normally at 0 for renewals) and January 22nd, a Sunday, (61 renewals in a collection normally at 0 for renewals and on a date we are closed). I'm trying to trace this problem back to figure out which help desk to contact and whether this is a local problem or a system problem. If you are a VERSO NCIP library on MeLCat and could just let me know yes or no if you have noticed a statistical anomaly (particularly on those two dates), I would really appreciate it. Thank you, Jessica T.A. Cutler Memorial Library 312 Michigan Ave. Saint Louis, Michigan 48880 (989) 681-5141
