This ‘grad thesis only’ problem was mentioned at the Summer Conference.
This works at UW Oshkosh.
Thesis-only students are not in a registered class so they aren't in the active patron database. This frustrates students when they want to use the library services, so we contacted the Graduate office and explained that we would like to make library interactions smoother for these students. The Graduate office now provides us with an updated list three times a year (following graduations in May, August and December) of ‘thesis-only’ graduate students and we manually make a patron record in a separate patron category, "Grad student thesis." Their record expires in one year, or is extended if they appear on the list again.

Some Circ Problems at Campuses:
1. Faculty not returning videos
2. Training student employees to become service oriented
3. Staffing shortages
4. Grad thesis-only students not in database
5. REMOTE STORAGE facility, 3 miles away, resulting in more retrievals than expected
6. Fire/tornado alarms being ignored
Some New Circ Services:
1. Free chair massages during finals week (paid for by admin)…alternative--could also rent a vibrating chair)
2. Laptop checkout period of 24-hrs or weekends /// some circulate MACS too
3. Laptops will Lojack® software (http://www.lojackforlaptops.com/learn-more-lojack-for-laptops.asp)
4. check out extension cords for laptop plug in
5. check out digital cameras
6. check out MP3 for podcasts
7. check out clickers
8. Cafés with coffee and food
9. Individual study rooms
10. Buying popular DVDs with fine money
11. Having music, i.e., guitarist, in the library
12. Considering implementing text messaging for Ref “TEXT US AT __________________’ instead of emails
13. Wheels on furniture so they can arrange their own GROUP STUDY area
14. Art gallery (hallway) student and staff exhibits

Thanks!

When you click on the "Directory Containing Full Text of Articles Below" link on this page, you'll find a new folder called Statistics. That has a sampling of each of the type of statistics we can get out of MetaLib (the data is from October 2007 from UW-River Falls' instance of MetaLib). I also included a Word document that has a brief description of each of the statistics. Enjoy :)

I would especially be interested in the Tabs and the words used to describe each function in Metalib via tabs, preferences between table & brief views. The advanced vs. simple search functionality might be another area - I find the search functionality of selecting 30 records problemmatic, but I don't know if most undergrads do. That might be interesting as well.
