Reference Universe
Please be aware that now there is, on the opening search screen for Reference Universe, the option to check a box that will:
Restrict Search to Titles in your Library
This is a considerable improvement in the usability of Reference Universe. If you have discounted RU in the past, please look at it again and keep it in mind as an option when you are helping patrons.
It can be a very useful tool. Xrefer titles are accessible via Reference Universe, and any reference e-books that we purchase in the future will be too.

West Elevator
PER: Dean Pritchard
PATRONS MAY HAVE TROUBLE CALLING THE ELEVATOR TO THE 2ND FLOOR.
AS A COURTESY, YOU WILL NEED TO RETRIEVE THE ELEVATOR FOR THE PATRON.
IF THIS OCCURS AND THERE IS STAFF ON 3RD FLOOR (7-4:30), PLEASE CALL AND ASK THEM TO PRESS THE 2ND FLOOR BUTTON AND SEND THE ELEVATOR DOWN.
IF IT IS AFTER OFFICE HOURS, YOU WILL NEED TO GO TO THE 3RD OR 1ST FLOOR, CALL THE ELEVATOR, AND THEN GET ON IT AND RIDE IT TO THE 2ND FLOOR.
MAKE SURE THE PATRON STAYS BY THE ELEVATOR SO THEY CAN GET ON WHEN THE DOOR OPENS.

Using the PHAROS printers with laptops
When I was working at the desk a week or two ago a student came up with his lease program laptop and was wondering how to send a print job to the nearby PHAROS printer. However, the nearest printer that came up on his list was the one in the ground floor lab. I did not know what to tell him. Now I do.
I should have told him to launch a browser session on his laptop and go to the following address.
http://www.moreheadstate.edu/printers
From there is is easy to figure out. Just select the printer you want and install it.
This will only work for laptops.

Tax Forms -- Finally!
We finally have all of the tax forms that we should have. It is no longer necessary to refer people to the IRS web site. If the form needed isn't available right there, then it can be photocopied from the reproducible copies in the binders.
