Relais & News Feeds

We are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel for the Relais ILL self-registration project. The last version was the best yet, but it still needs a little refinement. I am still unsure of how (or if) the self-registration page “talks” to Relais’s Table Maintenance module. I am hoping that Relais can clarify this issue for me.

We are also set to receive training from Relais on the 29th of August. Our ILL staff have been working with the system, but have yet to refine their work flow. Hopefully the training will smooth out some of the rough edges that we have encountered.

I also distributed a handout that introduces “news feed” (a.k.a., RSS or Atom) technology to library staff members. It looks denser than it really is; the line spacing was condensed for the purpose of page/printing conservation. You can view a PDF of this document by clicking here.

Other time has been filled with an assortment of administrative-type duties – composing communications, interviews, meetings, etc.
