Interoffice Mail Update

Since the hospital moved, mail delivery has gone through many changes.  Below is a list of our latest procedures and updates.

• Books owned by Mount Carmel Health Sciences Library are being sent to all locations, using the white bubble mailers.  
• Here are the interoffice procedures:  
• Be sure the client has an account in Sierra. If they do not, make one.
• Check out the item to the person before packing it up.
• Include the following information on the label, in this order:
• Hospital location (e.g. MCE)
• Unit or Suite
• Client's full name
• Explain to the client that interoffice mail delivery takes about a week to arrive.
• Once the mailer is packed up, leave it on Kaitlyn's desk in 3rd Floor Workroom.
• Tell the client that to return the item back to the Library, simply needs to flip the label over to show RETURN TO MCW LIBRARY. 

• Books borrowed from other libraries will no longer be sent through interoffice mail and must be picked up at the Library.  If a client has a question or wants to make other arrangements, have them call or e-mail Kaitlyn at 614-234-2154 or Kaitlyn.Humphrey@mchs.com.

As always, direct questions to Noreen or Kaitlyn.

Nightly Tasks Sheet

We revised the Nightly Task Sheet recently and added a new task of refilling the Keurig with fresh water.  Please be sure to make this part of your routine.  Also, remember to empty any water from the tray under the water basin (this will make it on the next version of the Nightly Task Sheet).  😃

One task that has been removed is refilling the candy dish.  We do not have candy at this time. 😞

Fresh copies of the Nightly Task Sheets are now kept in the front pocket of the binder.  Please let Noreen know when these are running low so she can restock them.  Please complete all the tasks on the sheet as well as any additional duties that we add.  Use the space at the bottom of the sheet for any questions or comments.  🙏

**Another reminder:  Put the flash drive back in the binder when you are finished saving articles.  

As always, let Noreen or Kaitlyn know if you have any questions.

Check Before Check-In

Please check the front and back cover of books you are checking in.  Even though they may be the same editions we carry on the Closed Reserve Shelf, some books you process are owned by other OhioLINK libraries. 

Steps to follow when checking in OhioLINK books:

• Locate barcode and check in book in Sierra as usual.
• Click the acknowledgement that the book is from the owning library.
• Say NO when it asks about printing check-in slip.
• Mark OhioLINK label on the book with a big R.
• Place book on Library work table.

These photos show the difference between a Mount Carmel Health Sciences Library book  and an OhioLINK book.  Notice that our book has the W in the bottom, left corner and the yellow Closed Reserve tape across the top.  An OhioLINK book has a sticker on the front or back cover.

**Another Important Reminder**

Please check the Laptop Loan Agreement drawer before closing up for the night.  Twice last week, laptops were not checked in properly.  In one instance, a laptop was left overnight in one of the Library study rooms.

Ask Noreen or Kaitlyn if you have any questions about either of these issues.
