Starting tomorrow, we'll be staffing the Information Point kiosk while Library West is closed to patrons for repairs. There are a few changes from the prior plan, the main one being that instead of the kiosk being right outside of West, we'll be inside Library East. I think this will be much more comfortable for everyone! It's just been so brutally hot lately.

As far as procedures and policies go, Ben Walker will be sending out an email with details soon.

I wanted to make sure you all know what lines of communication you will have available when staffing this kiosk:

You will have a walkie talkie with circulation staff on the other end at all times. The signal isn't great in East, so you may have to move closer to the door if you can't hear.

You will be able to email the Access Services Dept email address. This email address will go to all the Access Services staff (including ILL, EReserves, Stacks and ALF) so you'll definitely hear back from someone immediately.

We HOPE you'll also have a wireless phone available to call the main Access Services number 3-2525. We'll know more about whether they have the phone ready soon.

Keep and eye out for Ben's email about how we'll handle ILL pickups and the in-library use only items, reserves drop-offs, ILL drop-offs, Hold pickups (from storage and from West), and requests for unavailable materials in West (including current periodicals, reference, DVDs and Videos).

One more thing, as some of you know the IB students are hear doing research. The West books they are working with, or that they request from West, will all be moved over to Marston Science Library. So any IB student looking for their books will need to head over to MSL.

Any questions can be referred directly to me, Ben or emailed to the Access Services Dept email list.

Side note: You'll notice the Meebo Room on the right side of the blog. We were testing this as another avenue of communication. It's public though, and so we couldn't rely on it if we had to discuss patron or other sensitive information. Feel free to play with it though!

With our move to the main campus network, public computers can now print to either the blue or the orange printer. Both printers are installed on every computer.

Blue printer not working? Have the user pick the orange printer from the printing drop down menu, as pictured at right.

Orange printer not working? Have the user print to the blue printer.

When one printer is down for an extended time, IT will re-direct print jobs to the other printer so that users may get their prints.

Kimberlin Butler, director of foundation engagement, offers reflections about a convening that Mathematica hosted with The Denver Foundation. The event explored how cross-sector collaboration and data-informed practices can improve equity and outcomes for Denver metro communities.

Research on chronically low-performing schools suggests that monitoring the implementation and progress of these schools’ improvement efforts can help them use limited resources more effectively.

REL Mid-Atlantic explored whether kindergarten entry assessments can provide states and districts with a useful measure of progress toward proficient reading for cohorts of children.

In this episode of On the Evidence, Shane Kanady of SourceAmerica and Noelle Denny-Brown of Mathematica discuss findings from an evaluation of the Pathways to Careers program, which provides customized employment services to job seekers with significant disabilities.

We believe the value of program monitoring is in iteration. By combining live program administrative data with vetted measures of socioeconomic status, we help clients and stakeholders understand alternative payment models and make important improvements.

Attending a KIPP school led to a 10-13 percentage point improvement in the likelihood of enrolling in college.

To better understand its schools’ contributions to students’ learning in the first four grades, the Maryland State Department of Education partnered with the Regional Educational Laboratory Mid-Atlantic to explore constructing a school-level growth measure for kindergarten to grade 3.
