Libraries for Peace

Libraries for Peace created by Moody Summer Interns

Lissette and Sara.

An Hour of Coding

Barcode Generator

In order to use the self check out machines customers need to have their library card and their PIN numbers.  Tim Siegel provided me with a link to a barcode generator that the Stella Link location use to create a scannable barcode when a customer has left their card at home.  It is used best on Google Chrome where if you right click on the barcode it can be printed in a separate tab without the background wording. 

Barcode Generator

Please make sure to check ID's for card numbers and PIN numbers.  Also, remember if a card is lost it is best to have them refill out a new registration application and to stress the importance of remembering their PIN numbers.

HVAC Emergency After-Hours Issue

 Information on HVAC Emergency After-Hours Issue Contacts.

In the event of an after-hours HVAC emergency issues, please have staff contact David Nicholson of TD Industries (TDI) @ 832.309.0564. Also, please have staff to email Karrington Burnett when and if there is an HVAC after hours issue. 

Performer Evaluation and Statistics

Please remember to record all programs and outreaches and large groups that come into the library on the statistic sheet as soon as the program is finished.  This will be especially important for the Summer Reading Programs which will have a separate link from the usual for Performer Evaluation.

Programs such as the Para Los Ninos, Spanish Playgroup, and special performers need to also have a Performer Evaluation sheet filled out as well as recording the stats. The information for Moody's two regular performers needed to complete the evaluation is now on the blog.  Please check with the person in charge for the day to ensure that we have turned in the online performer Evaluation Sheet and have an accurate statistic recording.  Do not assume that someone else is recording the numbers especially if you are scheduled at the desk during the event.
