Week 5

Almost Done! This week we are going to take a look at the Explore Tab in the new catalogue! I have included a link to an explanatory PowerPoint slideshow at the end of this post to get you started.

Assignment: review the attached PowerPoint. Peruse and investigate the Explore tab and its sub topics. Email the trainer about your overall experience and feelings about the new Catalogue. List your favorite feature and least favorite feature of the Catalogue or Website and why.

At this time there are no comments from last week because all you lovely learners are doing a fan-tabulos job at your training!

Remember, questions can be emailed to the trainer (training@bpl.on.ca), or posted as a comment on this blog post. However, the FAQ and Help buttons are on the site to help you too.


Have Fun and Happy Days!!!

Week 4

Welcome back! This week we are going to explore the Content Creation abilities of the new catalogue! Again, I have included a link to an explanatory PowerPoint slideshow at the end of this post to get you started.
Assignment: make three or four of the content additions to one or more titles. Send the names of the edited titles in an email to the trainer so she can check out what you think of them!
Also, please remove the items that you have suspended or have on hold from the second week exercise :) This will help Circ figure out who actually wants these titles- and who has them on hold for the training. Thanks a bunch :)

Looks  like everyone is flying along with their training. Don't forget to make sure you completed the scavenger hunt also. Both the Scavenger Hunt and Weekly Assignments need to be done to get your name in the big draw for the IPad!!
