SERVICES

DESKTOP SUPPORT

Trish and Shashi are the first line of contact a “help desk” -- for common desktop computer issues and software applications such as Windows, Outlook/email, Internet Explorer/web browses, Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, etc.), File Maker, and other widely used computer and multimedia tools. Many questions or problems will be able to be addressed immediately either by phone or e-mail, or we’ll come see you in person. For issues that are more complicated, we will always attempt to respond in a timely manner and keep you informed of progress. When necessary, we will refer your computer problem to the Systems Office and your questions about computer applications/software to CIS or other appropriate support groups. Systems continues to be the first place to contact for support for Josiah, OCLC, RLIN, WebSpirs, and other unique library applications like ILLiad and Ariel, etc.

TRAINING

We will also be offering a variety of learning opportunities to the Library staff. It is our hope to be able to expand on training classes that have been offered in the past as well as to develop new ones tailored to Library. We will be happy to provide technical training at the individual, departmental, or Library levels. Recognizing that staff have a variety of learning style preferences we will also be developing training materials such as tip sheets and self-paced guides, one-on-one instructional sessions, and multimedia tutorials.
