Pick-Up Tip

Hi everyone,

I know that pick-up is no one's favorite activity at work, but it is essential to keeping the library looking good. Usually when one is scheduled for pick-up, one is also scheduled for planning time (PT) that hour. I heard a great suggestion this morning that some folks are doing: When you have a pick-up/planning time hour, do your planning time part first. Later in the hour, there is more likely to be something to be picked up. Remember to walk through the aisles to check all the shelves in addition to table tops and counter tops. Often customers will place items at the end of a shelf when they are finished using them, sometimes clear across the library from where they were found.

As always, please feel free to see me with any questions or concerns.

Thanks,
John
