Fifth Week and Spring Break

 For my fifth week at the library, I shelved books, read shelves, did spine label changes on books to switch from new to the regular collection location, put new magazines into the system, switched last issue of magazine to old magazine in the computer system, discarded old magazines, worked the circulation desk, and worked in the work room.  Working in the work room was a new experience for me.  I checked books in to the system by scanning using a wand and the apex scanner.  Also, I answered the telephone and helped the callers; either by answering the questions about how late we are opened till to renewing their books that are already checked.  Another thing that I did was trapping the holds.  I trapped them in the system, wrote down whom the item was going to, and placed it on the cart so that the patron can be notified of the hold being fulfilled.  Also, I called some patrons that had books on hold. 

Then the following week was Spring Break.  Because the dorms were closed and I had no place to stay, I was not at the library.
