HR staff question

Muffie Smith, Terri Simmons, Kim Smithson and Jaclyn Wilson
I liked the cow puppet best!

CTR and Community Information

Emailed a question from CCPL web site. With all this snow and closings, not sure when I will hear back.

Used AskUsNow! which I actually have used before as both a person asking questions and librarian answering them (at HCC). Interesting way that OCLC uses QuestionPoint to staff it.

CCPL organization chart

Find your job on the CCPL organization chart. How many people work in your branch or HQ department?
Well, a whole lot. The chart doesn't really say how many LA IIs or Is there are but so far I've met quite a few of the staff but I couldn't begin to tell you all of their names. I can say everyone has been very nice to me and I've enjoyed meeting them all.

Have you met everyone at your work location? I'm trying to!

If not, introduce yourself to someone new and record who you met, what they do, and one thing you learned about them. If there is no one new for you to meet at your work location, contact someone at another work location and introduce yourself. Record who you met, what they do, and one thing you learned about them.

Stephanie's answers

Here's what I learned from Stephanie regarding the movie poster question:

"I was fortunate to be involved in our On the Same Page Carroll County Reads Together project when we did To Kill a Mockingbird. Kris Peters, the Adult Services Supervisor at North Carroll suggested that we try to get Mary Badham, who played Scout in the film, to come and talk to our audience at the Arts Center when we showed the film. Well, Kris did..Mary came – it was a great success. I received a poster signed by her for my work on the project."

Also, Stephanie will be sending me samples of the forms that were mentioned in this module.

Game board quizzes?

Well, I've gone thru the first Game board box but do not see a quiz. I've also had no luck logging in to either the online time card manager or ESS. Not sure what's going on with that. Did send Stephanie S. email regarding the two assignments in the first module.

We'll see how this game board progresses.

Okay, I've started my blog which will be used for my Carroll County PL sub training. Not much to say as of yet, but keep checking back!
