Walking Path to Washington Boulevard Closing

For the benefit of our part-time staff:

Beginning this Friday, October 21st, access will be unavailable on the sidewalk path from the coutyard of the Original Building and FDIC to Washington Boulevard.

A fence will be put up to block the area between the courtyard and Washington Boulevard. Clark Construction will be working with Washington Gas to move the gas line and will be building an emergency ramp around the Foundation Building. This part of the project will take at least eight months to complete. During this time, alternate access to Washington Boulevard from the courtyard between FDIC and the Original Building can be obtained by walking from Fairfax Drive to Monroe Street or to Kirkwood.

While you were out...

There's a new "While You Were Out" document on the shared drive in the Admin folder (While you were out subfolder).

Please add to it with any news about what's been going on to help Page keep "in the know". Ideas? Security gate, new employees, etc...

Thanks!

News from the Giant Panda Habitat

This morning at about 8:40 a.m., National Zoo Director John Berry announced the name of the giant panda cub to great fanfare. Tai Shan, which means "peaceful mountain" in Chinese, was the clear favorite among the more than 200,000 votes received in the naming contest. Congratulations to Tai Shan, now 100 days old, on his most fitting name!

Treats!

Lee brought in some chocolate and I brought in some sugared pecans. Both treats can be found in the staff lounge.

Enjoy!

FAQ Updates

Just an FYI-- In addition to the information on pay-for-print from laptops, I added a question to the FAQ with the phone numbers Nancy gave us to call for technical problems with the printers and copying machines. I also edited question #8 to include the Mason Money Office's phone number.

The FAQ can be found on the shared drive under Administrative and in the ACL Reference Desk Help Manual.

Pay-for-Print from Laptops

Thanks to Brandon, we now have a set of instructions to give to students who want to send print jobs from their laptops! Students will have to install the Pharos Pay-for-Print software, which Brandon copied onto a CD. Both the instructions and the CD are located at the Ref Desk in the white binder marked ACL Reference Desk Help Manual. I've added a question to the FAQ for this.

Thanks again, Brandon!

Security Gate Update

We just received word that the 3M security gate will be delivered tomorrow Wednesday, October 5th sometime after 10:00am. If they can leave the boxes behind the law archive area that would be great. I am looking into how the current gate should be disposed of.
Thanks

Deliveries to the Library This Week

Just an FYI-- There will be two "big item" deliveries to the Library this week: the new security gate was supposed to be delivered today; so, it's possible that it might be here tomorrow.

On Wednesday, between 1:00 PM & 1:30 PM, VCE will be delivering the rest of the pieces for my cubicle and Lee's cubicle.

If you have any questions, please ask me, Lee or Nancy.

Thanks!
