Printer Paper

We have two types of printer paper: X-9 and OfficeMax. The X-9 paper we get from Coin Copiers and should only be used for the public printer and the public copy machine.  The OfficeMax paper we order through Supply and is for staff printers.

Mismatched Items, Missing Parts & Damaged Items

Remember to put a date on any item set aside that is mismatched/missing parts/scratched or still on a patron's account because of missing parts or damage to the item.  We don't hold on to these items forever and need to know how long the item has been on our repair shelf.

Items that aren't checked out to a patron should be marked on REPAIR SHELF status.

Door Count

Door count is next week (Monday, April 15-Saturday, April 20). Please remember to get the gate count every hour and to count in-house item use each day.

Children's Museum Passes & FLIP Kits

This is from Michaela Watson & Jody Whittinghill:

When customers return a completed survey from the FLIP kits, they are supposed to receive a coupon for 4 free entries to the Children’s Museum. For new passes, please email Jody Whittinghill at the Children’s Museum at jwhittinghill@cmhouston.org. Jody will send new passes anytime they are needed and requested; you should always have some on hand in case a customer returns a survey.

Don't forget to open each FLIP kit whenever you check in or out. The most important part is the book! Also, sometimes customers put other books or items in the bags and we need to check for that too.

If you have an over-abundance of kits, send an overall email out to see if someone needs some. Usually Kendall, Vinson and Stella Link are in great need.
