Libmedia Emails

While Monique is out of the office, please make sure that you are reading and responding, when appropriate, to emails addressed to her that we receive via the libmedia email account. Some of these are time-sensitive, like the recent request from Professor Adesokan. Emails addressed to Monique that are not time-sensitive can be forwarded to her email. Thanks!


Game Consoles/Equipment Re-Organized

Just as an FYI, the game console/equipment cabinets have been re-organized. They are now sorted based on company and release date. Cabinet #1 contains all PlayStation and Xbox consoles, cabinet #2 contains all Nintendo consoles as well as retro consoles like the Atari 2600 and Sega Genesis, and cabinet #3 contains spare controllers, headphones, and Blu-Ray/DVD players.

Media Services

If your a new staff member at the front desk and cannot sign into Workflows yet, there a folder titled “Manual Checkout Sheets” next to the computer that is near the carrels so you can check patrons out.


Reminder for PS5

When checking out/discharging the PS5, please remember scan the base along with the controllers and console. Somebody was billed $25 earlier because the base wasn’t discharged the last time the PS5 was checked out even though it was returned.

Closing reminders

For those working closing shifts, please remember to tidy up the chairs and the media rooms. This includes pushing in chairs, leaving the media room doors open to let them air out overnight, and returning moved chairs to their proper place. Also, don’t forget that the computers at the front desk must be restarted and not shut down.

PS 5

It looks like the PS 5 is on the fritz. UITS has been contacted as of yesterday evening (1/16). If we don’t hear from UITS in a reasonable amount of time we should reach out to them or Libauto. In the meantime, we should inform patrons that the PS 5 is currently unavailable.

The Invisible Man

Does anyone know the story of the loose Invisible Man DVD? It looks like it belongs in Browsing, but I cannot find the case. It is currently on the holds shelf.
