<div>=== GENERAL INFO ===<br />
The following is a partial overview of general building information that is shared with new LIS employees with offices in Davis Library. It is posted here as an overview/reminder for everyone. (Some information in the original email has been omitted for security purposes.)<br />
<br />
Because the library is not just a classroom and office building, but also stores some of the most valuable collections owned by the College, having an office here is unique and I'd like to call a few things to your attention.<br />
<br />
'''Emergency Preparedness'''<br />
<br />
All Middlebury College employees should become and stay familiar with the College-wide Emergency Response Procedures on the web at [http://www.middlebury.edu/er go/er] If Davis Library or Voter Hall are evacuated, the designated meeting area for staff is in front of Warner Hall. If Armstrong Library is evacuated the designated meeting area is on the hill next to Lang Dorm. If you work at a public service desk that deals with customers face to face, there may be additional emergency procedures that you should know about, so please ask your supervisor for an orientation to any department specific emergency manual.<br />
<br />
'''Access and Security'''<br />
<br />
-- You have (or shortly will have) card access to the exterior doors because you are a building "resident". That means that you can come and go whenever you want, including when the building is not open to the public. If you are in the building when it is not open to the public and you see any suspicious behavior, please call the Office of Public Safety (x5911) to let them know. You should never let anyone enter the building with you when it is not open to the public. Everyone who has good reason to be in the building when it is closed has been given card access.<br />
<br />
-- You are responsible for helping LIS maintain the security of the collections and therefore, even when the building is open to the public, please do not let people in or out through the back, Storrs Ave. doors unless they are physically unable to walk to the front door. Those without card access should exit the building through the front doors. While this is an inconvenience at times, it is important to maintain just one entrance and exit to the building for the sake of the security of the collections. If you allow someone you know to enter through the back doors with you as a favor, please remind them that they must exit through the front door. If you have a visitor and you would like to escort them to the back door as they leave, you are welcome to do so as long as they are not taking any library materials with them that they have not checked out.<br />
<br />
-- There is a toggle switch just above the doors as you exit the building. This switch controls the automatic door feature for handicapped access and should always be left in the "auto" position. If you would like a detailed, hands on explanation of this feature do not hesitate to ask me for one.<br />
<br />
-- Every now and then you might find that the interior doors do not unlock after you've used your access card. This is usually because somebody else has recently exited or entered and the doors had not reset when your card was read. If this happens, simply go back outside, wait a moment, then use your card again. It is impossible to get stuck between the two sets of doors because the exterior doors have a crash bar that can be used to open the doors even if they are locked.<br />
<br />
-- The emergency exit doors at the bottom of staircases #1 & #4 should not be used except in an emergency.<br />
<br />
-- The key to your office also opens common spaces like the staff room, loading dock, classrooms, and meeting rooms.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Office logistics'''<br />
<br />
-- If you want to keep library materials in your office, please help LIS maintain accurate collections information by taking a few moments to stop by the Circulation Desk to check them out.<br />
<br />
-- The use of heat-generating small appliances (like coffee makers, hot plates, etc.) in offices is discouraged because they can be a fire hazard. If you do use such appliances in your office they must have an automatic shut off feature. You are, of course, encouraged to use the Staff Room in LIB121 where you will find a well equipped kitchen.<br />
<br />
-- Of course the use of open flames (like candles or potpourri burners) is strictly prohibited.<br />
<br />
-- Please keep any food you have stored in your office in sealed containers. We have occasionally had a problem with mice in the building and you don't want mice feeding on that open dish of chocolate on top of your desk any more than we want those mice nesting in the books on the shelves.<br />
<br />
-- Those who have an office in the building have special privileges when it comes to reserving meeting rooms like LIB105, LIB145, LIB221. Please ask the LIS Administrative Assistant for more information.<br />
<br />
'''Stuff that comes and goes'''<br />
<br />
-- Mailboxes are in the Staff Room, LIB121. Outgoing mail may be left at the Info Desk or in the Staff Room.<br />
<br />
-- Those associated with CTLR generally send and receive faxes through that office at x2418. Those associated with LIS do so through Collection Management at x5698.<br />
<br />
-- Printing arrangements vary throughout the building so please ask your nearby neighbors what they do and don't hesitate to contact the Help Desk for assistance at x2200.<br />
<br />
-- Photocopiers are in the print/copy centers LIB142 and LBI242. Follow the directions attached to the machines to photocopy. See go/print for full information on how to print.<br />
<br />
-- The loading dock is a busy place. If you are notified that a package has arrived for you there, please collect the package as soon as conveniently possible.<br />
<br />
-- The Custodial Team routinely cleans offices on Wednesdays. Please refrain from putting fresh food garbage in your office trash because fresh food waste can attract insects and vermin. Instead, please deposit any such waste in the trash in either a bathroom or in the large bins in the central recycling areas. The Custodians do not routinely empty the small blue recycling bins or the trash bins in your office so you need to empty your own into the large bins in the central areas. Ask your new neighbor where the nearest ones are. Spare trash bags are kept in the supply closet LIB201A.<br />
<br />
Joseph Watson routinely coordinates LIS requests to Facilities Services for things in the building that need to be repaired. Please don't hesitate to ask questions or bring problems to his attention at any time.<br />
<br />
=== COMPACT SHELVING ===<br />
When shelving is malfunctioning please ask for assistance at the Circulation Desk. An override key can usually be used to open an aisle, but please use caution and make sure all aisles are empty before moving a carriage because the override key disables the safety features. If the override key doesn't work, a battery pack override may. The battery pack should always be kept fully charged because using a partially charged battery pack can damage the system.<br />
<br />
All problems should be reported to either the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor or the Facilities Coordinator. Signs will be posted to indicate that there's a known issue, so if there aren't signs posted in the problem area you should assume nobody knows that the shelving isn't working.<br />
<br />
Our compact shelving contractor is Donnegan Systems. If necessary, the Facilities Coordinator will place a service call. If he's unavailable, a service call to Donnegan may be placed at 1-800-222-6311.<br />
<br />
A manual for the compact shelving section L1-L35 can be found here: [[File:CompactShelveManual2009_eclipse.pdf]]<br />
<br />
A log of problems is kept [https://docs.google.com/a/middlebury.edu/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aq2wcICwqfc0dHdRaTFsdDdQNXEtMjNNXy1CdzQ3YlE here..]. please keep it updated.<br />
<br />
Please see this image for the numbering system for the compact shelving carriages.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
=== DOORS ===<br />
<br />
==== Access: ====<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the exterior front doors into the vestibule is 24/7 for anyone with a valid ID''' Students, Faculty, &amp; Staff have 24x7 access into the Vestibule. (Those with the following cards do not have ''access'' cards (but rather mag stripe only) and therefore cannot use card readers on campus. - Alumni, courtesy card, Friend of college, Spouse/Partner, Breadloaf, Faculty Emeriti, Retiree.)<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the interior front doors and back doors is:'''<br />
<br />
'''24/7 for:''' any staff or faculty member with an office in the building (including Faculty Offices LIB351-360); all Information Technology staff; Facilities Services “master” groups. Facilities Services Custodial access begins at 3am and for the rest of Facilities staff access begins at 6am. Access is occasionally given to Admissions tour guides during holiday weekends.<br />
<br />
'''When the building is open to the public for:''' Dining Services Supervisors; selected vendors making deliveries; faculty/staff who have assigned carrels in the building; anyone who qualifies for "handicapped access".<br />
<br />
'''Handicapped access:''' for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources.&nbsp; Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk.&nbsp; Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access.<br><br />
<br />
Non-ADA access to the back doors may be given at the discretion of the Dean of the Library.<br><br />
<br />
==== Door numbering:<br> ====<br />
<br />
The sets of doors are numbered.&nbsp; This can come in handy when reporting malfunctions to Facilities or Public Safety.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Davis_Lib_exterior_door_numbers_for_wiki.JPG|thumb|left]]<br /><br />
<br /><br />
<br />
==== Hold open feature on automatic doors: ====<br />
<br />
Each of the doors that are equipped with an automatic door opener for handicapped access has a small toggle switch over the interior side of the door. This switch has three positions, off, auto, hold open. '''The switch should be left in the "auto" position.''' If it is turned off the push button used to open the door will not work.<br />
<br />
The "hold open" position can be used to hold the door open. At the back doors use your access card then flip the switch to hold open and the door will open and stay that way until the switch is turned back to auto. At the front doors, press the button to open the doors and then flip the toggle switch.<br />
<br />
====Posting items on doors: ====<br />
Anything posted anywhere except bulletin boards should be removed and recycled. (Some semi-permanant signs for College Offices may be posted, but these should be laminated.) The college handbook states "Posters are permitted on designated bulletin boards or kiosks only. The organization or individual sponsoring an event or making an announcement is responsible for removing the material within 24 hours after the conclusion of the event or within 30 days of the posting, whichever occurs first. Please refrain from posting flyers on doors, walls, windows, buildings, lamp posts, trees or stairwells. Flyers found in these locations will be removed by College staff. Fines and/or disciplinary action may result from violations." (See the College Handbook Sec.8 pt.B)<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Keys: ====<br />
<br />
Keys are tracked and issued through the Dean of LIS's office. Requests for keys are made to the LIS Administrative Assistant. The request must come from the supervisor of the person that the key is being issued to.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
=== ELEVATORS AND STAIRWAYS ===<br />
The elevators and stairways are numbered so they can be referred to in an emergency or for general maintenance issues. Please see the image below for the numbering scheme. During a power outage Elevator #2 will continue to operate on generated power but if the generator stops running the elevator will stop where it is. During a power outage elevators #1 and #3 will go to the lower level, open once, then close and cease to operate.<br />

=== EMERGENCY PHONES ===<br />
<br />
Purpose: The purpose of the emergency phones at Davis Library is to summon emergency responders with the push of a button.<br />
<br />
Equipment: Davis Family Library is equipped with fourteen (14) push button emergency phones. <br />
<br />
Their locations are:<br />
<br />
* Lower Level: Four (4) phones, one at each stairwell access.<br />
* Main Level: Six (6) phones, one at each stairwell access; one in Wilson Café; one behind the circulation desk.<br />
* Upper Level: Four (4) phones, one at each stairwell access.<br />
<br />
'''Stairwell emergency phones and the phone in Wilson Café are:'''<br />
* Red in color<br />
* Programmed to dial Public Safety at x5911<br />
<br />
'''The phone behind the circulation desk is:'''<br />
* Silver in color<br />
* Programmed to dial 911 directly<br />
<br />
'''Circulation Desk Emergency Phone Protocol'''<br />
<br />
Because the Davis Family Library circulation desk emergency phone is programmed to call 911 directly, it is important to know and follow a protocol for its use. <br />
<br />
'''Protocol'''<br />
<br />
Call 911 by pushing the button when there is an emergency that requires external (non-campus) emergency responders:<br />
* Fire Department<br />
* Police Department<br />
* Emergency Medical Services<br />
<br />
If you must call 911:<br />
* First, if you must evacuate to stay safe, evacuate before calling 911. <br />
* Call from a landline or mobile phone if you are in a safe location. Do not leave safety to use the emergency phone if you have other options.<br />
* When using the emergency phone, stay on the line to speak with the dispatcher, if it is safe to do so. Provide as much information as possible.<br />
* If it is not safe to stay at the emergency phone after pushing the button, seek safety while leaving the line open.<br />
* Once answered by the dispatcher, if there is no communication from the caller, the emergency line will remain open for 60 seconds before timing out. This allows the dispatcher to hear what is happening. Important: The dispatcher’s voice will be heard. This is not a “silent alarm”.<br />
* It is critical in the last case that someone makes a phone call to 911 as soon as possible to provide more information about the incident. The call button feature should not be the one and only call to the police.<br />
* To terminate a call, push the button again.<br />
<br />
'''Accidental Activation: '''<br />
If you are aware that you have accidentally pressed the button, stay near the phone and inform the answering dispatcher that you accidentally called.<br />
All Other Emergency Phones in Davis Family Library (Red)<br />
All emergency phones (red) other than the circulation desk will call the Public Safety emergency line, 5911. After speaking with the caller about the details of the emergency, Public Safety will determine if 911 needs to be called for outside help, or if the situation can be managed by Public Safety officers.<br />
<br />
The emergency phones are analog phones and work on backup power for approximately twenty hours in the case of a power failure.<br />
<br />
=== FALLING ICE OR SNOW, from roof over doors ===<br />
<br />
If dangerous snow or ice accumulates over a door, recruit a staff member to stand guard and alert people of the problem until signage is posted, then call Joseph x5487 and let him know about it. (Call your building coordinator if you're working at a branch library.)<br />
<br />
'''If you do not reach Joseph in person-- &nbsp;'''<br />
<br />
'''for front doors: '''There are large yellow plastic folding signs in the back of closet 201A that should be placed outside on the patio so that people approaching the building are alerted to the problem. There are also laminated 8.5"x11" signs in the wall pocket in 201A that should be taped to the glass on the inside of the exterior doors.&nbsp; Once this has been done, call Facilities Services x5472 (or, if FS is closed call public safety x5911) and alert them to the situation, letting them know that you've posted signage.<br />
<br />
'''for back door:''' use the portable directional signs that are stored in the loading dock and the staff room to post signs outside.&nbsp; Use the spare signs in 201A to post signs on the inside doors.&nbsp; If large icicles have formed over either door post a sign encouraging people to use the other exit.<br />
<br />
These procedures would also be appropriate for any immediate safety hazard that you become aware of. It is very important that any and all of us react to a hazard and keep ourselves, coworkers, and the public, safe from harm. Don't assume somebody else will notice and deal with it, please be proactive and follow up until you're sure that somebody is working to resolve the situation and you're not needed. There are "caution, wet floor" signs in the basement near the custodial supplies.<br><br />
<br />
There is a known issue with snow and ice falling from the roof over the front door. If the weather conditions are just right, the snow melts and compacts and then slides off under the snow guards and over the gutter. Another, but less common problem, is icicles forming in the scuppers over the back doors.<br />
<br />
<br />
=== LOADING DOCK LIFT ===<br />
Only those trained to use the lift gate should operate it. There are instructions posted on the wall next to the switch. Read them completely before operating the lift. Improper operation can cause injury.<br />
<br />
=== MAINTENANCE REQUESTS ===<br />
Routine requests for Davis Library are funneled through the LIS Facilitates Coor., Joseph Watson. Things like broken locks, burned out light bulbs, plugged toilets, etc., should be reported to Joseph who will then place a request with Facilities Services. When Joseph is out of the office, Doreen Bernier the Asst. to the Dean of LIS can also place requests.<br />
Any problems that could be considered a safety hazard should be reported immediately, and if you don't reach Joseph, the problem should be reported directly to the Facilities Expeditor at x5472.<br />
<br />
=== POWER OUTAGES ===<br />
<br />
See Davis Library Emergency Manual for emergency procedures. http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
When the main power to the building fails, a generator located in the basement under the staff room should automatically start and power portions of the building as follows:<br />
*Elevator #2 (near loading dock) will operate normally.<br />
*Elevators #1 and #3 will automatically go to level 1, will open and shut once, then will no longer operate. If the generator fails to operate all elevators stop.<br />
*Card access and alarm systems.<br />
*ITS machine/server room.<br />
*Circulation desk.<br />
*Some lighting (but not all lights) sufficient to illuminate pathways to exits.<br />
<br />
Compact shelving will not operate; loading dock overhead door will not operate; most outlets will not work; phone system will work as long as battery backup lasts; PA system will work as long as phone system works.<br />
<br />
If the generator fails to operate, the door locking system runs on battery and will only last a little while. If this happens ask Public Safety (x5911) to put the doors in card access mode to save the battery backup and also tell them we are propping the doors open. Retrieve concrete blocks from closet 201A and prop one exterior door and one interior door open.<br />
<br />
If the power comes back on right away but the generator has already started, then the generator will run for about a half hour before shutting down. If this happens some parts of the building may smell like exhaust because the exhaust for the generator is on the roof near the air intake for the HVAC system. (This isn't a problem if the power is out because the HVAC system is shut off.)<br />
<br />
When we lose electricity the fire doors on staircase #1-#4 will shut and should be reopened as needed when the power returns. Sometimes the crash bar alarms on the emergency exits will sound after the power comes back on and will need to be reset by either the LIS Facilities Coor. or Facilities Services. Some of the compact shelving may not operate properly after a power outage and will need to be reset by the LIS Facilities Coor., or the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor.<br />
<br />
=== WATER LEAKS/INCURSIONS ===<br />
<br />
==== Reporting a leak, how to: ====<br />
If the water leak is severe and causing damage to library collections or equipment, follow the procedures in the emergency manual here-- http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
'''When a water leak is noticed and it is minor and not causing damage''' to collections or equipment, report it to Joseph Watson x5487. If you don't reach Joseph, leave him a message about the leak and then contact Facilities Services directly at x5472. If FS is closed (evenings and weekends) call the Office of Public Safety and ask them to reach FS on-call personnel if deemed necessary. Describe the situation giving them all details as needed and realistically indicating the severity of the situation. If placing a basket under the leak until regular FS staff can come during normal working hours will suffice, please do so but inform PS so that they can have the night watch guard check on the leak.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Storm drain, exterior, overflow: ====<br />
<br />
During very heavy rains the storm drains that are just outside of the emergency exits at the bottom of staircases number 1 and 4 have been known to overflow. Instead of water going down them, water flows up and out of them like a geyser. This problem was severe enough to cause water to flow under the door at the bottom of staircase number 4 and flow into the lower level soaking the carpet adjacent to the Harman Reading Area as well as seeping under the wall into the reception area of Special Collections soaking the carpet there. This is a known issue as of the Summer of 2008.&nbsp; If we receive very heavy rains, it makes sense to check these areas to see if there is a problem and then report it as needed following the instructions in the "reporting a leak" section of this wiki.&nbsp; If water is flowing under the door, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR because the door might be holding back a quantity of water.<br></div>Joseph Watsonhttps://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/LIS/index.php?title=Facilities_Information;_Davis_Family_Library&diff=38350Facilities Information; Davis Family Library2018-10-26T17:51:38Z<p>Joseph Watson: /* EMERGENCY PHONES */</p>

You should never let anyone enter the building with you when it is not open to the public. Everyone who has good reason to be in the building when it is closed has been given card access.<br />
<br />
-- You are responsible for helping LIS maintain the security of the collections and therefore, even when the building is open to the public, please do not let people in or out through the back, Storrs Ave. doors unless they are physically unable to walk to the front door. Those without card access should exit the building through the front doors. While this is an inconvenience at times, it is important to maintain just one entrance and exit to the building for the sake of the security of the collections. If you allow someone you know to enter through the back doors with you as a favor, please remind them that they must exit through the front door. If you have a visitor and you would like to escort them to the back door as they leave, you are welcome to do so as long as they are not taking any library materials with them that they have not checked out.<br />
<br />
-- There is a toggle switch just above the doors as you exit the building. This switch controls the automatic door feature for handicapped access and should always be left in the "auto" position. If you would like a detailed, hands on explanation of this feature do not hesitate to ask me for one.<br />
<br />
-- Every now and then you might find that the interior doors do not unlock after you've used your access card. This is usually because somebody else has recently exited or entered and the doors had not reset when your card was read. If this happens, simply go back outside, wait a moment, then use your card again. It is impossible to get stuck between the two sets of doors because the exterior doors have a crash bar that can be used to open the doors even if they are locked.<br />
<br />
-- The emergency exit doors at the bottom of staircases #1 & #4 should not be used except in an emergency.<br />
<br />
-- The key to your office also opens common spaces like the staff room, loading dock, classrooms, and meeting rooms.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Office logistics'''<br />
<br />
-- If you want to keep library materials in your office, please help LIS maintain accurate collections information by taking a few moments to stop by the Circulation Desk to check them out.<br />
<br />
-- The use of heat-generating small appliances (like coffee makers, hot plates, etc.) in offices is discouraged because they can be a fire hazard. If you do use such appliances in your office they must have an automatic shut off feature. You are, of course, encouraged to use the Staff Room in LIB121 where you will find a well equipped kitchen.<br />
<br />
-- Of course the use of open flames (like candles or potpourri burners) is strictly prohibited.<br />
<br />
-- Please keep any food you have stored in your office in sealed containers. We have occasionally had a problem with mice in the building and you don't want mice feeding on that open dish of chocolate on top of your desk any more than we want those mice nesting in the books on the shelves.<br />
<br />
-- Those who have an office in the building have special privileges when it comes to reserving meeting rooms like LIB105, LIB145, LIB221. Please ask the LIS Administrative Assistant for more information.<br />
<br />
'''Stuff that comes and goes'''<br />
<br />
-- Mailboxes are in the Staff Room, LIB121. Outgoing mail may be left at the Info Desk or in the Staff Room.<br />
<br />
-- Those associated with CTLR generally send and receive faxes through that office at x2418. Those associated with LIS do so through Collection Management at x5698.<br />
<br />
-- Printing arrangements vary throughout the building so please ask your nearby neighbors what they do and don't hesitate to contact the Help Desk for assistance at x2200.<br />
<br />
-- Photocopiers are in the print/copy centers LIB142 and LBI242. Follow the directions attached to the machines to photocopy. See go/print for full information on how to print.<br />
<br />
-- The loading dock is a busy place. If you are notified that a package has arrived for you there, please collect the package as soon as conveniently possible.<br />
<br />
-- The Custodial Team routinely cleans offices on Wednesdays. Please refrain from putting fresh food garbage in your office trash because fresh food waste can attract insects and vermin. Instead, please deposit any such waste in the trash in either a bathroom or in the large bins in the central recycling areas. The Custodians do not routinely empty the small blue recycling bins or the trash bins in your office so you need to empty your own into the large bins in the central areas. Ask your new neighbor where the nearest ones are. Spare trash bags are kept in the supply closet LIB201A.<br />
<br />
Joseph Watson routinely coordinates LIS requests to Facilities Services for things in the building that need to be repaired. Please don't hesitate to ask questions or bring problems to his attention at any time.<br />
<br />
=== COMPACT SHELVING ===<br />
When shelving is malfunctioning please ask for assistance at the Circulation Desk. An override key can usually be used to open an aisle, but please use caution and make sure all aisles are empty before moving a carriage because the override key disables the safety features. If the override key doesn't work, a battery pack override may. The battery pack should always be kept fully charged because using a partially charged battery pack can damage the system.<br />
<br />
All problems should be reported to either the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor or the Facilities Coordinator. Signs will be posted to indicate that there's a known issue, so if there aren't signs posted in the problem area you should assume nobody knows that the shelving isn't working.<br />
<br />
Our compact shelving contractor is Donnegan Systems. If necessary, the Facilities Coordinator will place a service call. If he's unavailable, a service call to Donnegan may be placed at 1-800-222-6311.<br />
<br />

'''Card Access through the exterior front doors into the vestibule is 24/7 for anyone with a valid ID''' Students, Faculty, &amp; Staff have 24x7 access into the Vestibule. (Those with the following cards do not have ''access'' cards (but rather mag stripe only) and therefore cannot use card readers on campus. - Alumni, courtesy card, Friend of college, Spouse/Partner, Breadloaf, Faculty Emeriti, Retiree.)<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the interior front doors and back doors is:'''<br />
<br />
'''24/7 for:''' any staff or faculty member with an office in the building (including Faculty Offices LIB351-360); all Information Technology staff; Facilities Services “master” groups. Facilities Services Custodial access begins at 3am and for the rest of Facilities staff access begins at 6am. Access is occasionally given to Admissions tour guides during holiday weekends.<br />
<br />
'''When the building is open to the public for:''' Dining Services Supervisors; selected vendors making deliveries; faculty/staff who have assigned carrels in the building; anyone who qualifies for "handicapped access".<br />
<br />
'''Handicapped access:''' for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources.&nbsp; Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk.&nbsp; Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access.<br><br />
<br />
Non-ADA access to the back doors may be given at the discretion of the Dean of the Library.<br><br />

<br /><br />
<br />
==== Hold open feature on automatic doors: ====<br />
<br />
Each of the doors that are equipped with an automatic door opener for handicapped access has a small toggle switch over the interior side of the door. This switch has three positions, off, auto, hold open. '''The switch should be left in the "auto" position.''' If it is turned off the push button used to open the door will not work.<br />
<br />
The "hold open" position can be used to hold the door open. At the back doors use your access card then flip the switch to hold open and the door will open and stay that way until the switch is turned back to auto. At the front doors, press the button to open the doors and then flip the toggle switch.<br />
<br />
====Posting items on doors: ====<br />
Anything posted anywhere except bulletin boards should be removed and recycled. (Some semi-permanant signs for College Offices may be posted, but these should be laminated.) The college handbook states "Posters are permitted on designated bulletin boards or kiosks only. The organization or individual sponsoring an event or making an announcement is responsible for removing the material within 24 hours after the conclusion of the event or within 30 days of the posting, whichever occurs first. Please refrain from posting flyers on doors, walls, windows, buildings, lamp posts, trees or stairwells. Flyers found in these locations will be removed by College staff. Fines and/or disciplinary action may result from violations." (See the College Handbook Sec.8 pt.B)<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Keys: ====<br />
<br />
Keys are tracked and issued through the Dean of LIS's office. Requests for keys are made to the LIS Administrative Assistant. The request must come from the supervisor of the person that the key is being issued to.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
=== ELEVATORS AND STAIRWAYS ===<br />
The elevators and stairways are numbered so they can be referred to in an emergency or for general maintenance issues. Please see the image below for the numbering scheme. During a power outage Elevator #2 will continue to operate on generated power but if the generator stops running the elevator will stop where it is. During a power outage elevators #1 and #3 will go to the lower level, open once, then close and cease to operate.<br />

=== EMERGENCY PHONES ===<br />
<br />
Purpose: The purpose of the emergency phones at Davis Library is to summon emergency responders with the push of a button.<br />
<br />
Equipment: Davis Family Library is equipped with fourteen (14) push button emergency phones. <br />
<br />
Their locations are:<br />
<br />
* Lower Level: Four (4) phones, one at each stairwell access.<br />
* Main Level: Six (6) phones, one at each stairwell access; one in Wilson Café; one behind the circulation desk.<br />
* Upper Level: Four (4) phones, one at each stairwell access.<br />
<br />
'''Stairwell emergency phones and the phone in Wilson Café are:'''<br />
* Red in color<br />
* Programmed to dial Public Safety at x5911<br />
<br />
'''The phone behind the circulation desk is:'''<br />
* Silver in color<br />
* Programmed to dial 911 directly<br />
<br />
'''Circulation Desk Emergency Phone Protocol'''<br />
<br />
Because the Davis Family Library circulation desk emergency phone is programmed to call 911 directly, it is important to know and follow a protocol for its use. <br />
<br />
'''Protocol'''<br />
<br />
Call 911 by pushing the button when there is an emergency that requires external (non-campus) emergency responders:<br />
* Fire Department<br />
* Police Department<br />
* Emergency Medical Services<br />
<br />
If you must call 911:<br />
* First, if you must evacuate to stay safe, evacuate before calling 911. <br />
* Call from a landline or mobile phone if you are in a safe location. Do not leave safety to use the emergency phone if you have other options.<br />
* When using the emergency phone, stay on the line to speak with the dispatcher, if it is safe to do so. Provide as much information as possible.<br />
* If it is not safe to stay at the emergency phone after pushing the button, seek safety while leaving the line open.<br />
* Once answered by the dispatcher, if there is no communication from the caller, the emergency line will remain open for 60 seconds before timing out. This allows the dispatcher to hear what is happening. Important: The dispatcher’s voice will be heard. This is not a “silent alarm”.<br />
* It is critical in the last case that someone makes a phone call to 911 as soon as possible to provide more information about the incident. The call button feature should not be the one and only call to the police.<br />
* To terminate a call, push the button again.<br />
<br />
'''Accidental Activation: '''<br />
If you are aware that you have accidentally pressed the button, stay near the phone and inform the answering dispatcher that you accidentally called.<br />
All Other Emergency Phones in Davis Family Library (Red)<br />
All emergency phones (red) other than the circulation desk will call the Public Safety emergency line, 5911. After speaking with the caller about the details of the emergency, Public Safety will determine if 911 needs to be called for outside help, or if the situation can be managed by Public Safety officers.<br />
<br />
The emergency phones are analog phones and work on backup power for approximately twenty hours in the case of a power failure.<br />
<br />
=== FALLING ICE OR SNOW, from roof over doors ===<br />
<br />
If dangerous snow or ice accumulates over a door, recruit a staff member to stand guard and alert people of the problem until signage is posted, then call Joseph x5487 and let him know about it. (Call your building coordinator if you're working at a branch library.)<br />
<br />
'''If you do not reach Joseph in person-- &nbsp;'''<br />
<br />
'''for front doors: '''There are large yellow plastic folding signs in the back of closet 201A that should be placed outside on the patio so that people approaching the building are alerted to the problem. There are also laminated 8.5"x11" signs in the wall pocket in 201A that should be taped to the glass on the inside of the exterior doors.&nbsp; Once this has been done, call Facilities Services x5472 (or, if FS is closed call public safety x5911) and alert them to the situation, letting them know that you've posted signage.<br />
<br />
'''for back door:''' use the portable directional signs that are stored in the loading dock and the staff room to post signs outside.&nbsp; Use the spare signs in 201A to post signs on the inside doors.&nbsp; If large icicles have formed over either door post a sign encouraging people to use the other exit.<br />
<br />
These procedures would also be appropriate for any immediate safety hazard that you become aware of. It is very important that any and all of us react to a hazard and keep ourselves, coworkers, and the public, safe from harm. Don't assume somebody else will notice and deal with it, please be proactive and follow up until you're sure that somebody is working to resolve the situation and you're not needed. There are "caution, wet floor" signs in the basement near the custodial supplies.<br><br />
<br />
There is a known issue with snow and ice falling from the roof over the front door. If the weather conditions are just right, the snow melts and compacts and then slides off under the snow guards and over the gutter. Another, but less common problem, is icicles forming in the scuppers over the back doors.<br />
<br />
<br />
=== LOADING DOCK LIFT ===<br />
Only those trained to use the lift gate should operate it. There are instructions posted on the wall next to the switch. Read them completely before operating the lift. Improper operation can cause injury.<br />
<br />
=== MAINTENANCE REQUESTS ===<br />
Routine requests for Davis Library are funneled through the LIS Facilitates Coor., Joseph Watson. Things like broken locks, burned out light bulbs, plugged toilets, etc., should be reported to Joseph who will then place a request with Facilities Services. When Joseph is out of the office, Doreen Bernier the Asst. to the Dean of LIS can also place requests.<br />
Any problems that could be considered a safety hazard should be reported immediately, and if you don't reach Joseph, the problem should be reported directly to the Facilities Expeditor at x5472.<br />
<br />
=== POWER OUTAGES ===<br />
<br />
See Davis Library Emergency Manual for emergency procedures. http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
When the main power to the building fails, a generator located in the basement under the staff room should automatically start and power portions of the building as follows:<br />
*Elevator #2 (near loading dock) will operate normally.<br />
*Elevators #1 and #3 will automatically go to level 1, will open and shut once, then will no longer operate. If the generator fails to operate all elevators stop.<br />
*Card access and alarm systems.<br />
*ITS machine/server room.<br />
*Circulation desk.<br />
*Some lighting (but not all lights) sufficient to illuminate pathways to exits.<br />
<br />
Compact shelving will not operate; loading dock overhead door will not operate; most outlets will not work; phone system will work as long as battery backup lasts; PA system will work as long as phone system works.<br />
<br />
If the generator fails to operate, the door locking system runs on battery and will only last a little while. If this happens ask Public Safety (x5911) to put the doors in card access mode to save the battery backup and also tell them we are propping the doors open. Retrieve concrete blocks from closet 201A and prop one exterior door and one interior door open.<br />
<br />
If the power comes back on right away but the generator has already started, then the generator will run for about a half hour before shutting down. If this happens some parts of the building may smell like exhaust because the exhaust for the generator is on the roof near the air intake for the HVAC system. (This isn't a problem if the power is out because the HVAC system is shut off.)<br />
<br />
When we lose electricity the fire doors on staircase #1-#4 will shut and should be reopened as needed when the power returns. Sometimes the crash bar alarms on the emergency exits will sound after the power comes back on and will need to be reset by either the LIS Facilities Coor. or Facilities Services. Some of the compact shelving may not operate properly after a power outage and will need to be reset by the LIS Facilities Coor., or the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor.<br />
<br />
=== WATER LEAKS/INCURSIONS ===<br />
<br />
==== Reporting a leak, how to: ====<br />
If the water leak is severe and causing damage to library collections or equipment, follow the procedures in the emergency manual here-- http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
'''When a water leak is noticed and it is minor and not causing damage''' to collections or equipment, report it to Joseph Watson x5487. If you don't reach Joseph, leave him a message about the leak and then contact Facilities Services directly at x5472. If FS is closed (evenings and weekends) call the Office of Public Safety and ask them to reach FS on-call personnel if deemed necessary. Describe the situation giving them all details as needed and realistically indicating the severity of the situation. If placing a basket under the leak until regular FS staff can come during normal working hours will suffice, please do so but inform PS so that they can have the night watch guard check on the leak.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Storm drain, exterior, overflow: ====<br />
<br />
During very heavy rains the storm drains that are just outside of the emergency exits at the bottom of staircases number 1 and 4 have been known to overflow. Instead of water going down them, water flows up and out of them like a geyser. This problem was severe enough to cause water to flow under the door at the bottom of staircase number 4 and flow into the lower level soaking the carpet adjacent to the Harman Reading Area as well as seeping under the wall into the reception area of Special Collections soaking the carpet there. This is a known issue as of the Summer of 2008.&nbsp; If we receive very heavy rains, it makes sense to check these areas to see if there is a problem and then report it as needed following the instructions in the "reporting a leak" section of this wiki.&nbsp; If water is flowing under the door, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR because the door might be holding back a quantity of water.<br></div>Joseph Watsonhttps://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/LIS/index.php?title=Facilities_Information;_Davis_Family_Library&diff=38349Facilities Information; Davis Family Library2018-10-26T17:51:23Z<p>Joseph Watson: /* EMERGENCY PHONES */</p>

<div>=== GENERAL INFO ===<br />
The following is a partial overview of general building information that is shared with new LIS employees with offices in Davis Library. It is posted here as an overview/reminder for everyone. (Some information in the original email has been omitted for security purposes.)<br />
<br />
Because the library is not just a classroom and office building, but also stores some of the most valuable collections owned by the College, having an office here is unique and I'd like to call a few things to your attention.<br />
<br />
'''Emergency Preparedness'''<br />
<br />
All Middlebury College employees should become and stay familiar with the College-wide Emergency Response Procedures on the web at [http://www.middlebury.edu/er go/er] If Davis Library or Voter Hall are evacuated, the designated meeting area for staff is in front of Warner Hall. If Armstrong Library is evacuated the designated meeting area is on the hill next to Lang Dorm. If you work at a public service desk that deals with customers face to face, there may be additional emergency procedures that you should know about, so please ask your supervisor for an orientation to any department specific emergency manual.<br />
<br />
'''Access and Security'''<br />
<br />
-- You have (or shortly will have) card access to the exterior doors because you are a building "resident". That means that you can come and go whenever you want, including when the building is not open to the public. If you are in the building when it is not open to the public and you see any suspicious behavior, please call the Office of Public Safety (x5911) to let them know. You should never let anyone enter the building with you when it is not open to the public. Everyone who has good reason to be in the building when it is closed has been given card access.<br />
<br />
-- You are responsible for helping LIS maintain the security of the collections and therefore, even when the building is open to the public, please do not let people in or out through the back, Storrs Ave. doors unless they are physically unable to walk to the front door.

Each of the doors that are equipped with an automatic door opener for handicapped access has a small toggle switch over the interior side of the door. This switch has three positions, off, auto, hold open. '''The switch should be left in the "auto" position.''' If it is turned off the push button used to open the door will not work.<br />
<br />
The "hold open" position can be used to hold the door open. At the back doors use your access card then flip the switch to hold open and the door will open and stay that way until the switch is turned back to auto. At the front doors, press the button to open the doors and then flip the toggle switch.<br />
<br />
====Posting items on doors: ====<br />
Anything posted anywhere except bulletin boards should be removed and recycled. (Some semi-permanant signs for College Offices may be posted, but these should be laminated.) The college handbook states "Posters are permitted on designated bulletin boards or kiosks only. The organization or individual sponsoring an event or making an announcement is responsible for removing the material within 24 hours after the conclusion of the event or within 30 days of the posting, whichever occurs first. Please refrain from posting flyers on doors, walls, windows, buildings, lamp posts, trees or stairwells. Flyers found in these locations will be removed by College staff. Fines and/or disciplinary action may result from violations." (See the College Handbook Sec.8 pt.B)<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Keys: ====<br />
<br />
Keys are tracked and issued through the Dean of LIS's office. Requests for keys are made to the LIS Administrative Assistant. The request must come from the supervisor of the person that the key is being issued to.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
=== ELEVATORS AND STAIRWAYS ===<br />
The elevators and stairways are numbered so they can be referred to in an emergency or for general maintenance issues. Please see the image below for the numbering scheme. During a power outage Elevator #2 will continue to operate on generated power but if the generator stops running the elevator will stop where it is. During a power outage elevators #1 and #3 will go to the lower level, open once, then close and cease to operate.<br />

=== EMERGENCY PHONES ===<br />
<br />
Purpose: The purpose of the emergency phones at Davis Library is to summon emergency responders with the push of a button.<br />
<br />
Equipment: Davis Family Library is equipped with fourteen (14) push button emergency phones. <br />
<br />
Their locations are:<br />
<br />
* Lower Level: Four (4) phones, one at each stairwell access.<br />
* Main Level: Six (6) phones, one at each stairwell access; one in Wilson Café; one behind the circulation desk.<br />
* Upper Level: Four (4) phones, one at each stairwell access.<br />
<br />
'''Stairwell emergency phones and the phone in Wilson Café are:'''<br />
* Red in color<br />
* Programmed to dial Public Safety at x5911<br />
<br />
'''The phone behind the circulation desk is:'''<br />
* Silver in color<br />
* Programmed to dial 911 directly<br />
<br />
'''Circulation Desk Emergency Phone Protocol'''<br />
<br />
Because the Davis Family Library circulation desk emergency phone is programmed to call 911 directly, it is important to know and follow a protocol for its use. <br />
<br />
'''Protocol'''<br />
<br />
Call 911 by pushing the button when there is an emergency that requires external (non-campus) emergency responders:<br />
* Fire Department<br />
* Police Department<br />
* Emergency Medical Services<br />
<br />
If you must call 911:<br />
* First, if you must evacuate to stay safe, evacuate before calling 911. <br />
* Call from a landline or mobile phone if you are in a safe location. Do not leave safety to use the emergency phone if you have other options.<br />
* When using the emergency phone, stay on the line to speak with the dispatcher, if it is safe to do so. Provide as much information as possible.<br />
* If it is not safe to stay at the emergency phone after pushing the button, seek safety while leaving the line open.<br />
* Once answered by the dispatcher, if there is no communication from the caller, the emergency line will remain open for 60 seconds before timing out. This allows the dispatcher to hear what is happening. Important: The dispatcher’s voice will be heard. This is not a “silent alarm”.<br />
* It is critical in the last case that someone makes a phone call to 911 as soon as possible to provide more information about the incident. The call button feature should not be the one and only call to the police.<br />
* To terminate a call, push the button again.<br />
<br />
'''Accidental Activation: '''<br />
If you are aware that you have accidentally pressed the button, stay near the phone and inform the answering dispatcher that you accidentally called.<br />
All Other Emergency Phones in Davis Family Library (Red)<br />
All emergency phones (red) other than the circulation desk will call the Public Safety emergency line, 5911. After speaking with the caller about the details of the emergency, Public Safety will determine if 911 needs to be called for outside help, or if the situation can be managed by Public Safety officers.<br />
<br />
The emergency phones are analog phones and work on backup power for approximately twenty hours in the case of a power failure.<br />
<br />
=== FALLING ICE OR SNOW, from roof over doors ===<br />
<br />
If dangerous snow or ice accumulates over a door, recruit a staff member to stand guard and alert people of the problem until signage is posted, then call Joseph x5487 and let him know about it. (Call your building coordinator if you're working at a branch library.)<br />
<br />
'''If you do not reach Joseph in person-- &nbsp;'''<br />
<br />
'''for front doors: '''There are large yellow plastic folding signs in the back of closet 201A that should be placed outside on the patio so that people approaching the building are alerted to the problem. There are also laminated 8.5"x11" signs in the wall pocket in 201A that should be taped to the glass on the inside of the exterior doors.&nbsp; Once this has been done, call Facilities Services x5472 (or, if FS is closed call public safety x5911) and alert them to the situation, letting them know that you've posted signage.<br />
<br />
'''for back door:''' use the portable directional signs that are stored in the loading dock and the staff room to post signs outside.&nbsp; Use the spare signs in 201A to post signs on the inside doors.&nbsp; If large icicles have formed over either door post a sign encouraging people to use the other exit.<br />
<br />
These procedures would also be appropriate for any immediate safety hazard that you become aware of. It is very important that any and all of us react to a hazard and keep ourselves, coworkers, and the public, safe from harm. Don't assume somebody else will notice and deal with it, please be proactive and follow up until you're sure that somebody is working to resolve the situation and you're not needed. There are "caution, wet floor" signs in the basement near the custodial supplies.<br><br />
<br />
There is a known issue with snow and ice falling from the roof over the front door. If the weather conditions are just right, the snow melts and compacts and then slides off under the snow guards and over the gutter. Another, but less common problem, is icicles forming in the scuppers over the back doors.<br />
<br />
<br />
=== LOADING DOCK LIFT ===<br />
Only those trained to use the lift gate should operate it. There are instructions posted on the wall next to the switch. Read them completely before operating the lift. Improper operation can cause injury.<br />
<br />
=== MAINTENANCE REQUESTS ===<br />
Routine requests for Davis Library are funneled through the LIS Facilitates Coor., Joseph Watson. Things like broken locks, burned out light bulbs, plugged toilets, etc., should be reported to Joseph who will then place a request with Facilities Services. When Joseph is out of the office, Doreen Bernier the Asst. to the Dean of LIS can also place requests.<br />
Any problems that could be considered a safety hazard should be reported immediately, and if you don't reach Joseph, the problem should be reported directly to the Facilities Expeditor at x5472.<br />
<br />
=== POWER OUTAGES ===<br />
<br />
See Davis Library Emergency Manual for emergency procedures. http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
When the main power to the building fails, a generator located in the basement under the staff room should automatically start and power portions of the building as follows:<br />
*Elevator #2 (near loading dock) will operate normally.<br />
*Elevators #1 and #3 will automatically go to level 1, will open and shut once, then will no longer operate. If the generator fails to operate all elevators stop.<br />
*Card access and alarm systems.<br />
*ITS machine/server room.<br />
*Circulation desk.<br />
*Some lighting (but not all lights) sufficient to illuminate pathways to exits.<br />
<br />
Compact shelving will not operate; loading dock overhead door will not operate; most outlets will not work; phone system will work as long as battery backup lasts; PA system will work as long as phone system works.<br />
<br />
If the generator fails to operate, the door locking system runs on battery and will only last a little while. If this happens ask Public Safety (x5911) to put the doors in card access mode to save the battery backup and also tell them we are propping the doors open. Retrieve concrete blocks from closet 201A and prop one exterior door and one interior door open.<br />
<br />
If the power comes back on right away but the generator has already started, then the generator will run for about a half hour before shutting down. If this happens some parts of the building may smell like exhaust because the exhaust for the generator is on the roof near the air intake for the HVAC system. (This isn't a problem if the power is out because the HVAC system is shut off.)<br />
<br />
When we lose electricity the fire doors on staircase #1-#4 will shut and should be reopened as needed when the power returns. Sometimes the crash bar alarms on the emergency exits will sound after the power comes back on and will need to be reset by either the LIS Facilities Coor. or Facilities Services. Some of the compact shelving may not operate properly after a power outage and will need to be reset by the LIS Facilities Coor., or the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor.<br />
<br />
=== WATER LEAKS/INCURSIONS ===<br />
<br />
==== Reporting a leak, how to: ====<br />
If the water leak is severe and causing damage to library collections or equipment, follow the procedures in the emergency manual here-- http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
'''When a water leak is noticed and it is minor and not causing damage''' to collections or equipment, report it to Joseph Watson x5487. If you don't reach Joseph, leave him a message about the leak and then contact Facilities Services directly at x5472. If FS is closed (evenings and weekends) call the Office of Public Safety and ask them to reach FS on-call personnel if deemed necessary. Describe the situation giving them all details as needed and realistically indicating the severity of the situation. If placing a basket under the leak until regular FS staff can come during normal working hours will suffice, please do so but inform PS so that they can have the night watch guard check on the leak.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Storm drain, exterior, overflow: ====<br />
<br />
During very heavy rains the storm drains that are just outside of the emergency exits at the bottom of staircases number 1 and 4 have been known to overflow. Instead of water going down them, water flows up and out of them like a geyser. This problem was severe enough to cause water to flow under the door at the bottom of staircase number 4 and flow into the lower level soaking the carpet adjacent to the Harman Reading Area as well as seeping under the wall into the reception area of Special Collections soaking the carpet there. This is a known issue as of the Summer of 2008.&nbsp; If we receive very heavy rains, it makes sense to check these areas to see if there is a problem and then report it as needed following the instructions in the "reporting a leak" section of this wiki.&nbsp; If water is flowing under the door, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR because the door might be holding back a quantity of water.<br></div>Joseph Watsonhttps://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/LIS/index.php?title=Library_Lockers_and_Study_Carrels&diff=38222Library Lockers and Study Carrels2018-09-26T15:56:34Z<p>Joseph Watson: /* Faculty Carrels */</p>

<hr />
<div>=== GENERAL INFO ===<br />
The following is a partial overview of general building information that is shared with new LIS employees with offices in Davis Library. It is posted here as an overview/reminder for everyone. (Some information in the original email has been omitted for security purposes.)<br />
<br />
Because the library is not just a classroom and office building, but also stores some of the most valuable collections owned by the College, having an office here is unique and I'd like to call a few things to your attention.<br />
<br />
'''Emergency Preparedness'''<br />
<br />
All Middlebury College employees should become and stay familiar with the College-wide Emergency Response Procedures on the web at [http://www.middlebury.edu/er go/er] If Davis Library or Voter Hall are evacuated, the designated meeting area for staff is in front of Warner Hall. If Armstrong Library is evacuated the designated meeting area is on the hill next to Lang Dorm. If you work at a public service desk that deals with customers face to face, there may be additional emergency procedures that you should know about, so please ask your supervisor for an orientation to any department specific emergency manual.<br />
<br />
'''Access and Security'''<br />
<br />
-- You have (or shortly will have) card access to the exterior doors because you are a building "resident". That means that you can come and go whenever you want, including when the building is not open to the public. If you are in the building when it is not open to the public and you see any suspicious behavior, please call the Office of Public Safety (x5911) to let them know. You should never let anyone enter the building with you when it is not open to the public. Everyone who has good reason to be in the building when it is closed has been given card access.<br />
<br />
-- You are responsible for helping LIS maintain the security of the collections and therefore, even when the building is open to the public, please do not let people in or out through the back, Storrs Ave. doors unless they are physically unable to walk to the front door. Those without card access should exit the building through the front doors. While this is an inconvenience at times, it is important to maintain just one entrance and exit to the building for the sake of the security of the collections. If you allow someone you know to enter through the back doors with you as a favor, please remind them that they must exit through the front door. If you have a visitor and you would like to escort them to the back door as they leave, you are welcome to do so as long as they are not taking any library materials with them that they have not checked out.<br />
<br />
-- There is a toggle switch just above the doors as you exit the building. This switch controls the automatic door feature for handicapped access and should always be left in the "auto" position. If you would like a detailed, hands on explanation of this feature do not hesitate to ask me for one.<br />
<br />
-- Every now and then you might find that the interior doors do not unlock after you've used your access card. This is usually because somebody else has recently exited or entered and the doors had not reset when your card was read. If this happens, simply go back outside, wait a moment, then use your card again. It is impossible to get stuck between the two sets of doors because the exterior doors have a crash bar that can be used to open the doors even if they are locked.<br />
<br />
-- The emergency exit doors at the bottom of staircases #1 & #4 should not be used except in an emergency.<br />
<br />
-- The key to your office also opens common spaces like the staff room, loading dock, classrooms, and meeting rooms.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Office logistics'''<br />
<br />
-- If you want to keep library materials in your office, please help LIS maintain accurate collections information by taking a few moments to stop by the Circulation Desk to check them out.<br />
<br />
-- The use of heat-generating small appliances (like coffee makers, hot plates, etc.) in offices is discouraged because they can be a fire hazard. If you do use such appliances in your office they must have an automatic shut off feature. You are, of course, encouraged to use the Staff Room in LIB121 where you will find a well equipped kitchen.<br />
<br />
-- Of course the use of open flames (like candles or potpourri burners) is strictly prohibited.<br />
<br />
-- Please keep any food you have stored in your office in sealed containers. We have occasionally had a problem with mice in the building and you don't want mice feeding on that open dish of chocolate on top of your desk any more than we want those mice nesting in the books on the shelves.<br />
<br />
-- Those who have an office in the building have special privileges when it comes to reserving meeting rooms like LIB105, LIB145, LIB221. Please ask the LIS Administrative Assistant for more information.<br />
<br />
'''Stuff that comes and goes'''<br />
<br />
-- Mailboxes are in the Staff Room, LIB121. Outgoing mail may be left at the Info Desk or in the Staff Room.<br />
<br />
-- Those associated with CTLR generally send and receive faxes through that office at x2418. Those associated with LIS do so through Collection Management at x5698.<br />
<br />
-- Printing arrangements vary throughout the building so please ask your nearby neighbors what they do and don't hesitate to contact the Help Desk for assistance at x2200.<br />
<br />
-- Photocopiers are in the print/copy centers LIB142 and LBI242. Follow the directions attached to the machines to photocopy. See go/print for full information on how to print.<br />
<br />
-- The loading dock is a busy place. If you are notified that a package has arrived for you there, please collect the package as soon as conveniently possible.<br />
<br />
-- The Custodial Team routinely cleans offices on Wednesdays. Please refrain from putting fresh food garbage in your office trash because fresh food waste can attract insects and vermin. Instead, please deposit any such waste in the trash in either a bathroom or in the large bins in the central recycling areas. The Custodians do not routinely empty the small blue recycling bins or the trash bins in your office so you need to empty your own into the large bins in the central areas. Ask your new neighbor where the nearest ones are. Spare trash bags are kept in the supply closet LIB201A.<br />
<br />
Joseph Watson routinely coordinates LIS requests to Facilities Services for things in the building that need to be repaired. Please don't hesitate to ask questions or bring problems to his attention at any time.<br />
<br />
=== COMPACT SHELVING ===<br />
When shelving is malfunctioning please ask for assistance at the Circulation Desk. An override key can usually be used to open an aisle, but please use caution and make sure all aisles are empty before moving a carriage because the override key disables the safety features. If the override key doesn't work, a battery pack override may. The battery pack should always be kept fully charged because using a partially charged battery pack can damage the system.<br />
<br />
All problems should be reported to either the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor or the Facilities Coordinator. Signs will be posted to indicate that there's a known issue, so if there aren't signs posted in the problem area you should assume nobody knows that the shelving isn't working.<br />
<br />
Our compact shelving contractor is Donnegan Systems. If necessary, the Facilities Coordinator will place a service call. If he's unavailable, a service call to Donnegan may be placed at 1-800-222-6311.<br />
<br />
A manual for the compact shelving section L1-L35 can be found here: [[File:CompactShelveManual2009_eclipse.pdf]]<br />
<br />
A log of problems is kept [https://docs.google.com/a/middlebury.edu/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aq2wcICwqfc0dHdRaTFsdDdQNXEtMjNNXy1CdzQ3YlE here..]. please keep it updated.<br />
<br />

=== DOORS ===<br />
<br />
==== Access: ====<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the exterior front doors into the vestibule is 24/7 for anyone with a valid ID''' Students, Faculty, &amp; Staff have 24x7 access into the Vestibule. (Those with the following cards do not have ''access'' cards (but rather mag stripe only) and therefore cannot use card readers on campus. - Alumni, courtesy card, Friend of college, Spouse/Partner, Breadloaf, Faculty Emeriti, Retiree.)<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the interior front doors and back doors is:'''<br />
<br />
'''24/7 for:''' any staff or faculty member with an office in the building (including Faculty Offices LIB351-360); all Information Technology staff; Facilities Services “master” groups. Facilities Services Custodial access begins at 3am and for the rest of Facilities staff access begins at 6am. Access is occasionally given to Admissions tour guides during holiday weekends.<br />
<br />
'''When the building is open to the public for:''' Dining Services Supervisors; selected vendors making deliveries; faculty/staff who have assigned carrels in the building; anyone who qualifies for "handicapped access".<br />
<br />
'''Handicapped access:''' for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources.&nbsp; Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk.&nbsp; Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access.<br><br />
<br />
Non-ADA access to the back doors may be given at the discretion of the Dean of the Library.<br><br />
<br />
==== Door numbering:<br> ====<br />
<br />
The sets of doors are numbered.&nbsp; This can come in handy when reporting malfunctions to Facilities or Public Safety.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Davis_Lib_exterior_door_numbers_for_wiki.JPG|thumb|left]]<br /><br />
<br /><br />
<br />
==== Hold open feature on automatic doors: ====<br />
<br />
Each of the doors that are equipped with an automatic door opener for handicapped access has a small toggle switch over the interior side of the door. This switch has three positions, off, auto, hold open. '''The switch should be left in the "auto" position.''' If it is turned off the push button used to open the door will not work.<br />
<br />
The "hold open" position can be used to hold the door open. At the back doors use your access card then flip the switch to hold open and the door will open and stay that way until the switch is turned back to auto. At the front doors, press the button to open the doors and then flip the toggle switch.<br />
<br />
====Posting items on doors: ====<br />
Anything posted anywhere except bulletin boards should be removed and recycled. (Some semi-permanant signs for College Offices may be posted, but these should be laminated.) The college handbook states "Posters are permitted on designated bulletin boards or kiosks only. The organization or individual sponsoring an event or making an announcement is responsible for removing the material within 24 hours after the conclusion of the event or within 30 days of the posting, whichever occurs first. Please refrain from posting flyers on doors, walls, windows, buildings, lamp posts, trees or stairwells. Flyers found in these locations will be removed by College staff. Fines and/or disciplinary action may result from violations." (See the College Handbook Sec.8 pt.B)<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Keys: ====<br />
<br />
Keys are tracked and issued through the Dean of LIS's office. Requests for keys are made to the LIS Administrative Assistant. The request must come from the supervisor of the person that the key is being issued to.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
=== ELEVATORS AND STAIRWAYS ===<br />
The elevators and stairways are numbered so they can be referred to in an emergency or for general maintenance issues. Please see the image below for the numbering scheme. During a power outage Elevator #2 will continue to operate on generated power but if the generator stops running the elevator will stop where it is. During a power outage elevators #1 and #3 will go to the lower level, open once, then close and cease to operate.<br />

=== EMERGENCY PHONES ===<br />
<br />
Purpose: The purpose of the emergency phones at Davis Library is to summon emergency responders with the push of a button.<br />
<br />
Equipment: Davis Family Library is equipped with fourteen (14) push button emergency phones. <br />
<br />
Their locations are:<br />
<br />
* Lower Level: Four (4) phones, one at each stairwell access.<br />
* Main Level: Six (6) phones, one at each stairwell access; one in Wilson Café; one behind the circulation desk.<br />
* Upper Level: Four (4) phones, one at each stairwell access.<br />
<br />
'''Stairwell emergency phones and the phone in Wilson Café are:'''<br />
* Red in color<br />
* Programmed to dial Public Safety at x5911<br />
<br />
'''The phone behind the circulation desk is:'''<br />
* Silver in color<br />
* Programmed to dial 911 directly<br />
<br />
'''Circulation Desk Emergency Phone Protocol'''<br />
<br />
Because the Davis Family Library circulation desk emergency phone is programmed to call 911 directly, it is important to know and follow a protocol for its use. <br />
<br />
'''Protocol'''<br />
<br />
Call 911 by pushing the button when there is an emergency that requires external (non-campus) emergency responders:<br />
* Fire Department<br />
* Police Department<br />
* Emergency Medical Services<br />
<br />
If you must call 911:<br />
* First, if you must evacuate to stay safe, evacuate before calling 911. <br />
* Call from a landline or mobile phone if you are in a safe location. Do not leave safety to use the emergency phone if you have other options.<br />
* When using the emergency phone, stay on the line to speak with the dispatcher, if it is safe to do so. Provide as much information as possible.<br />
* If it is not safe to stay at the emergency phone after pushing the button, seek safety while leaving the line open.<br />
* Once answered by the dispatcher, if there is no communication from the caller, the emergency line will remain open for 60 seconds before timing out. This allows the dispatcher to hear what is happening. Important: The dispatcher’s voice will be heard. This is not a “silent alarm”.<br />
* It is critical in the last case that someone makes a phone call to 911 as soon as possible to provide more information about the incident. The call button feature should not be the one and only call to the police.<br />
* To terminate a call, push the button again.<br />
<br />
'''Accidental Activation: '''<br />
If you are aware that you have accidentally pressed the button, stay near the phone and inform the answering dispatcher that you accidentally called.<br />
All Other Emergency Phones in Davis Family Library (Red)<br />
All emergency phones (red) other than the circulation desk will call the Public Safety emergency line, 5911. After speaking with the caller about the details of the emergency, Public Safety will determine if 911 needs to be called for outside help, or if the situation can be managed by Public Safety officers.<br />
<br />
=== FALLING ICE OR SNOW, from roof over doors ===<br />
<br />
If dangerous snow or ice accumulates over a door, recruit a staff member to stand guard and alert people of the problem until signage is posted, then call Joseph x5487 and let him know about it. (Call your building coordinator if you're working at a branch library.)<br />
<br />
'''If you do not reach Joseph in person-- &nbsp;'''<br />
<br />
'''for front doors: '''There are large yellow plastic folding signs in the back of closet 201A that should be placed outside on the patio so that people approaching the building are alerted to the problem. There are also laminated 8.5"x11" signs in the wall pocket in 201A that should be taped to the glass on the inside of the exterior doors.&nbsp; Once this has been done, call Facilities Services x5472 (or, if FS is closed call public safety x5911) and alert them to the situation, letting them know that you've posted signage.<br />
<br />
'''for back door:''' use the portable directional signs that are stored in the loading dock and the staff room to post signs outside.&nbsp; Use the spare signs in 201A to post signs on the inside doors.&nbsp; If large icicles have formed over either door post a sign encouraging people to use the other exit.<br />
<br />
These procedures would also be appropriate for any immediate safety hazard that you become aware of. It is very important that any and all of us react to a hazard and keep ourselves, coworkers, and the public, safe from harm. Don't assume somebody else will notice and deal with it, please be proactive and follow up until you're sure that somebody is working to resolve the situation and you're not needed. There are "caution, wet floor" signs in the basement near the custodial supplies.<br><br />
<br />
There is a known issue with snow and ice falling from the roof over the front door. If the weather conditions are just right, the snow melts and compacts and then slides off under the snow guards and over the gutter. Another, but less common problem, is icicles forming in the scuppers over the back doors.<br />
<br />
<br />
=== LOADING DOCK LIFT ===<br />
Only those trained to use the lift gate should operate it. There are instructions posted on the wall next to the switch. Read them completely before operating the lift. Improper operation can cause injury.<br />
<br />
=== MAINTENANCE REQUESTS ===<br />
Routine requests for Davis Library are funneled through the LIS Facilitates Coor., Joseph Watson. Things like broken locks, burned out light bulbs, plugged toilets, etc., should be reported to Joseph who will then place a request with Facilities Services. When Joseph is out of the office, Doreen Bernier the Asst. to the Dean of LIS can also place requests.<br />
Any problems that could be considered a safety hazard should be reported immediately, and if you don't reach Joseph, the problem should be reported directly to the Facilities Expeditor at x5472.<br />
<br />
=== POWER OUTAGES ===<br />
<br />
See Davis Library Emergency Manual for emergency procedures. http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
When the main power to the building fails, a generator located in the basement under the staff room should automatically start and power portions of the building as follows:<br />
*Elevator #2 (near loading dock) will operate normally.<br />
*Elevators #1 and #3 will automatically go to level 1, will open and shut once, then will no longer operate. If the generator fails to operate all elevators stop.<br />
*Card access and alarm systems.<br />
*ITS machine/server room.<br />
*Circulation desk.<br />
*Some lighting (but not all lights) sufficient to illuminate pathways to exits.<br />
<br />
Compact shelving will not operate; loading dock overhead door will not operate; most outlets will not work; phone system will work as long as battery backup lasts; PA system will work as long as phone system works.<br />
<br />
If the generator fails to operate, the door locking system runs on battery and will only last a little while. If this happens ask Public Safety (x5911) to put the doors in card access mode to save the battery backup and also tell them we are propping the doors open. Retrieve concrete blocks from closet 201A and prop one exterior door and one interior door open.<br />
<br />
If the power comes back on right away but the generator has already started, then the generator will run for about a half hour before shutting down. If this happens some parts of the building may smell like exhaust because the exhaust for the generator is on the roof near the air intake for the HVAC system. (This isn't a problem if the power is out because the HVAC system is shut off.)<br />
<br />
When we lose electricity the fire doors on staircase #1-#4 will shut and should be reopened as needed when the power returns. Sometimes the crash bar alarms on the emergency exits will sound after the power comes back on and will need to be reset by either the LIS Facilities Coor. or Facilities Services. Some of the compact shelving may not operate properly after a power outage and will need to be reset by the LIS Facilities Coor., or the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor.<br />
<br />
=== WATER LEAKS/INCURSIONS ===<br />
<br />
==== Reporting a leak, how to: ====<br />
If the water leak is severe and causing damage to library collections or equipment, follow the procedures in the emergency manual here-- http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
'''When a water leak is noticed and it is minor and not causing damage''' to collections or equipment, report it to Joseph Watson x5487. If you don't reach Joseph, leave him a message about the leak and then contact Facilities Services directly at x5472. If FS is closed (evenings and weekends) call the Office of Public Safety and ask them to reach FS on-call personnel if deemed necessary. Describe the situation giving them all details as needed and realistically indicating the severity of the situation. If placing a basket under the leak until regular FS staff can come during normal working hours will suffice, please do so but inform PS so that they can have the night watch guard check on the leak.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Storm drain, exterior, overflow: ====<br />
<br />
During very heavy rains the storm drains that are just outside of the emergency exits at the bottom of staircases number 1 and 4 have been known to overflow. Instead of water going down them, water flows up and out of them like a geyser. This problem was severe enough to cause water to flow under the door at the bottom of staircase number 4 and flow into the lower level soaking the carpet adjacent to the Harman Reading Area as well as seeping under the wall into the reception area of Special Collections soaking the carpet there. This is a known issue as of the Summer of 2008.&nbsp; If we receive very heavy rains, it makes sense to check these areas to see if there is a problem and then report it as needed following the instructions in the "reporting a leak" section of this wiki.&nbsp; If water is flowing under the door, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR because the door might be holding back a quantity of water.<br></div>Joseph Watsonhttps://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/LIS/index.php?title=Facilities_Information;_Davis_Family_Library&diff=38161Facilities Information; Davis Family Library2018-09-03T17:37:57Z<p>Joseph Watson: /* EMERGENCY PHONES */</p>

<div>=== GENERAL INFO ===<br />
The following is a partial overview of general building information that is shared with new LIS employees with offices in Davis Library. It is posted here as an overview/reminder for everyone. (Some information in the original email has been omitted for security purposes.)<br />
<br />
Because the library is not just a classroom and office building, but also stores some of the most valuable collections owned by the College, having an office here is unique and I'd like to call a few things to your attention.<br />
<br />
'''Emergency Preparedness'''<br />
<br />
All Middlebury College employees should become and stay familiar with the College-wide Emergency Response Procedures on the web at [http://www.middlebury.edu/er go/er] If Davis Library or Voter Hall are evacuated, the designated meeting area for staff is in front of Warner Hall. If Armstrong Library is evacuated the designated meeting area is on the hill next to Lang Dorm. If you work at a public service desk that deals with customers face to face, there may be additional emergency procedures that you should know about, so please ask your supervisor for an orientation to any department specific emergency manual.<br />
<br />
'''Access and Security'''<br />
<br />
-- You have (or shortly will have) card access to the exterior doors because you are a building "resident". That means that you can come and go whenever you want, including when the building is not open to the public. If you are in the building when it is not open to the public and you see any suspicious behavior, please call the Office of Public Safety (x5911) to let them know. You should never let anyone enter the building with you when it is not open to the public. Everyone who has good reason to be in the building when it is closed has been given card access.<br />
<br />
-- You are responsible for helping LIS maintain the security of the collections and therefore, even when the building is open to the public, please do not let people in or out through the back, Storrs Ave. doors unless they are physically unable to walk to the front door. Those without card access should exit the building through the front doors. While this is an inconvenience at times, it is important to maintain just one entrance and exit to the building for the sake of the security of the collections. If you allow someone you know to enter through the back doors with you as a favor, please remind them that they must exit through the front door. If you have a visitor and you would like to escort them to the back door as they leave, you are welcome to do so as long as they are not taking any library materials with them that they have not checked out.<br />
<br />
-- There is a toggle switch just above the doors as you exit the building. This switch controls the automatic door feature for handicapped access and should always be left in the "auto" position. If you would like a detailed, hands on explanation of this feature do not hesitate to ask me for one.<br />
<br />
-- Every now and then you might find that the interior doors do not unlock after you've used your access card. This is usually because somebody else has recently exited or entered and the doors had not reset when your card was read. If this happens, simply go back outside, wait a moment, then use your card again. It is impossible to get stuck between the two sets of doors because the exterior doors have a crash bar that can be used to open the doors even if they are locked.<br />
<br />
-- The emergency exit doors at the bottom of staircases #1 & #4 should not be used except in an emergency.<br />
<br />
-- The key to your office also opens common spaces like the staff room, loading dock, classrooms, and meeting rooms.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Office logistics'''<br />
<br />
-- If you want to keep library materials in your office, please help LIS maintain accurate collections information by taking a few moments to stop by the Circulation Desk to check them out.<br />
<br />
-- The use of heat-generating small appliances (like coffee makers, hot plates, etc.) in offices is discouraged because they can be a fire hazard. If you do use such appliances in your office they must have an automatic shut off feature. You are, of course, encouraged to use the Staff Room in LIB121 where you will find a well equipped kitchen.<br />
<br />
-- Of course the use of open flames (like candles or potpourri burners) is strictly prohibited.<br />
<br />
-- Please keep any food you have stored in your office in sealed containers. We have occasionally had a problem with mice in the building and you don't want mice feeding on that open dish of chocolate on top of your desk any more than we want those mice nesting in the books on the shelves.<br />
<br />
-- Those who have an office in the building have special privileges when it comes to reserving meeting rooms like LIB105, LIB145, LIB221. Please ask the LIS Administrative Assistant for more information.<br />
<br />
'''Stuff that comes and goes'''<br />
<br />
-- Mailboxes are in the Staff Room, LIB121. Outgoing mail may be left at the Info Desk or in the Staff Room.<br />
<br />
-- Those associated with CTLR generally send and receive faxes through that office at x2418. Those associated with LIS do so through Collection Management at x5698.<br />
<br />
-- Printing arrangements vary throughout the building so please ask your nearby neighbors what they do and don't hesitate to contact the Help Desk for assistance at x2200.<br />
<br />
-- Photocopiers are in the print/copy centers LIB142 and LBI242. Follow the directions attached to the machines to photocopy. See go/print for full information on how to print.<br />
<br />
-- The loading dock is a busy place. If you are notified that a package has arrived for you there, please collect the package as soon as conveniently possible.<br />
<br />
-- The Custodial Team routinely cleans offices on Wednesdays. Please refrain from putting fresh food garbage in your office trash because fresh food waste can attract insects and vermin. Instead, please deposit any such waste in the trash in either a bathroom or in the large bins in the central recycling areas. The Custodians do not routinely empty the small blue recycling bins or the trash bins in your office so you need to empty your own into the large bins in the central areas. Ask your new neighbor where the nearest ones are. Spare trash bags are kept in the supply closet LIB201A.<br />
<br />
Joseph Watson routinely coordinates LIS requests to Facilities Services for things in the building that need to be repaired. Please don't hesitate to ask questions or bring problems to his attention at any time.<br />
<br />
=== COMPACT SHELVING ===<br />
When shelving is malfunctioning please ask for assistance at the Circulation Desk. An override key can usually be used to open an aisle, but please use caution and make sure all aisles are empty before moving a carriage because the override key disables the safety features. If the override key doesn't work, a battery pack override may. The battery pack should always be kept fully charged because using a partially charged battery pack can damage the system.<br />
<br />
All problems should be reported to either the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor or the Facilities Coordinator. Signs will be posted to indicate that there's a known issue, so if there aren't signs posted in the problem area you should assume nobody knows that the shelving isn't working.<br />
<br />
Our compact shelving contractor is Donnegan Systems. If necessary, the Facilities Coordinator will place a service call. If he's unavailable, a service call to Donnegan may be placed at 1-800-222-6311.<br />
<br />
A manual for the compact shelving section L1-L35 can be found here: [[File:CompactShelveManual2009_eclipse.pdf]]<br />
<br />
A log of problems is kept [https://docs.google.com/a/middlebury.edu/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aq2wcICwqfc0dHdRaTFsdDdQNXEtMjNNXy1CdzQ3YlE here..]. please keep it updated.<br />
<br />
Please see this image for the numbering system for the compact shelving carriages.<br />

<br />
<br />
=== DOORS ===<br />
<br />
==== Access: ====<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the exterior front doors into the vestibule is 24/7 for anyone with a valid ID''' Students, Faculty, &amp; Staff have 24x7 access into the Vestibule. (Those with the following cards do not have ''access'' cards (but rather mag stripe only) and therefore cannot use card readers on campus. - Alumni, courtesy card, Friend of college, Spouse/Partner, Breadloaf, Faculty Emeriti, Retiree.)<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the interior front doors and back doors is:'''<br />
<br />
'''24/7 for:''' any staff or faculty member with an office in the building (including Faculty Offices LIB351-360); all Information Technology staff; Facilities Services “master” groups. Facilities Services Custodial access begins at 3am and for the rest of Facilities staff access begins at 6am. Access is occasionally given to Admissions tour guides during holiday weekends.<br />
<br />
'''When the building is open to the public for:''' Dining Services Supervisors; selected vendors making deliveries; faculty/staff who have assigned carrels in the building; anyone who qualifies for "handicapped access".<br />
<br />
'''Handicapped access:''' for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources.&nbsp; Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk.&nbsp; Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access.<br><br />
<br />
Non-ADA access to the back doors may be given at the discretion of the Dean of the Library.<br><br />
<br />
==== Door numbering:<br> ====<br />
<br />
The sets of doors are numbered.&nbsp; This can come in handy when reporting malfunctions to Facilities or Public Safety.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Davis_Lib_exterior_door_numbers_for_wiki.JPG|thumb|left]]<br /><br />
<br /><br />
<br />
==== Hold open feature on automatic doors: ====<br />
<br />
Each of the doors that are equipped with an automatic door opener for handicapped access has a small toggle switch over the interior side of the door. This switch has three positions, off, auto, hold open. '''The switch should be left in the "auto" position.''' If it is turned off the push button used to open the door will not work.<br />
<br />
The "hold open" position can be used to hold the door open. At the back doors use your access card then flip the switch to hold open and the door will open and stay that way until the switch is turned back to auto. At the front doors, press the button to open the doors and then flip the toggle switch.<br />
<br />
====Posting items on doors: ====<br />
Anything posted anywhere except bulletin boards should be removed and recycled. (Some semi-permanant signs for College Offices may be posted, but these should be laminated.) The college handbook states "Posters are permitted on designated bulletin boards or kiosks only. The organization or individual sponsoring an event or making an announcement is responsible for removing the material within 24 hours after the conclusion of the event or within 30 days of the posting, whichever occurs first. Please refrain from posting flyers on doors, walls, windows, buildings, lamp posts, trees or stairwells. Flyers found in these locations will be removed by College staff. Fines and/or disciplinary action may result from violations." (See the College Handbook Sec.8 pt.B)<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Keys: ====<br />
<br />
Keys are tracked and issued through the Dean of LIS's office. Requests for keys are made to the LIS Administrative Assistant. The request must come from the supervisor of the person that the key is being issued to.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
=== ELEVATORS AND STAIRWAYS ===<br />
The elevators and stairways are numbered so they can be referred to in an emergency or for general maintenance issues. Please see the image below for the numbering scheme. During a power outage Elevator #2 will continue to operate on generated power but if the generator stops running the elevator will stop where it is. During a power outage elevators #1 and #3 will go to the lower level, open once, then close and cease to operate.<br />

Describe the situation giving them all details as needed and realistically indicating the severity of the situation. If placing a basket under the leak until regular FS staff can come during normal working hours will suffice, please do so but inform PS so that they can have the night watch guard check on the leak.<br />

==== Storm drain, exterior, overflow: ====<br />
<br />
During very heavy rains the storm drains that are just outside of the emergency exits at the bottom of staircases number 1 and 4 have been known to overflow. Instead of water going down them, water flows up and out of them like a geyser. This problem was severe enough to cause water to flow under the door at the bottom of staircase number 4 and flow into the lower level soaking the carpet adjacent to the Harman Reading Area as well as seeping under the wall into the reception area of Special Collections soaking the carpet there. This is a known issue as of the Summer of 2008.&nbsp; If we receive very heavy rains, it makes sense to check these areas to see if there is a problem and then report it as needed following the instructions in the "reporting a leak" section of this wiki.&nbsp; If water is flowing under the door, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR because the door might be holding back a quantity of water.<br></div>Joseph Watsonhttps://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/LIS/index.php?title=Facilities_Information;_Davis_Family_Library&diff=38160Facilities Information; Davis Family Library2018-09-03T17:14:58Z<p>Joseph Watson: /* EMERGENCY PHONES */</p>

<div>=== GENERAL INFO ===<br />
The following is a partial overview of general building information that is shared with new LIS employees with offices in Davis Library. It is posted here as an overview/reminder for everyone. (Some information in the original email has been omitted for security purposes.)<br />
<br />
Because the library is not just a classroom and office building, but also stores some of the most valuable collections owned by the College, having an office here is unique and I'd like to call a few things to your attention.<br />
<br />
'''Emergency Preparedness'''<br />
<br />
All Middlebury College employees should become and stay familiar with the College-wide Emergency Response Procedures on the web at [http://www.middlebury.edu/er go/er] If Davis Library or Voter Hall are evacuated, the designated meeting area for staff is in front of Warner Hall. If Armstrong Library is evacuated the designated meeting area is on the hill next to Lang Dorm. If you work at a public service desk that deals with customers face to face, there may be additional emergency procedures that you should know about, so please ask your supervisor for an orientation to any department specific emergency manual.<br />
<br />
'''Access and Security'''<br />
<br />
-- You have (or shortly will have) card access to the exterior doors because you are a building "resident". That means that you can come and go whenever you want, including when the building is not open to the public. If you are in the building when it is not open to the public and you see any suspicious behavior, please call the Office of Public Safety (x5911) to let them know. You should never let anyone enter the building with you when it is not open to the public. Everyone who has good reason to be in the building when it is closed has been given card access.<br />
<br />
-- You are responsible for helping LIS maintain the security of the collections and therefore, even when the building is open to the public, please do not let people in or out through the back, Storrs Ave. doors unless they are physically unable to walk to the front door. Those without card access should exit the building through the front doors. While this is an inconvenience at times, it is important to maintain just one entrance and exit to the building for the sake of the security of the collections. If you allow someone you know to enter through the back doors with you as a favor, please remind them that they must exit through the front door. If you have a visitor and you would like to escort them to the back door as they leave, you are welcome to do so as long as they are not taking any library materials with them that they have not checked out.<br />
<br />
-- There is a toggle switch just above the doors as you exit the building. This switch controls the automatic door feature for handicapped access and should always be left in the "auto" position. If you would like a detailed, hands on explanation of this feature do not hesitate to ask me for one.<br />
<br />
-- Every now and then you might find that the interior doors do not unlock after you've used your access card. This is usually because somebody else has recently exited or entered and the doors had not reset when your card was read. If this happens, simply go back outside, wait a moment, then use your card again. It is impossible to get stuck between the two sets of doors because the exterior doors have a crash bar that can be used to open the doors even if they are locked.<br />
<br />
-- The emergency exit doors at the bottom of staircases #1 & #4 should not be used except in an emergency.<br />
<br />
-- The key to your office also opens common spaces like the staff room, loading dock, classrooms, and meeting rooms.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Office logistics'''<br />
<br />
-- If you want to keep library materials in your office, please help LIS maintain accurate collections information by taking a few moments to stop by the Circulation Desk to check them out.<br />
<br />
-- The use of heat-generating small appliances (like coffee makers, hot plates, etc.) in offices is discouraged because they can be a fire hazard. If you do use such appliances in your office they must have an automatic shut off feature. You are, of course, encouraged to use the Staff Room in LIB121 where you will find a well equipped kitchen.<br />
<br />
-- Of course the use of open flames (like candles or potpourri burners) is strictly prohibited.<br />
<br />
-- Please keep any food you have stored in your office in sealed containers. We have occasionally had a problem with mice in the building and you don't want mice feeding on that open dish of chocolate on top of your desk any more than we want those mice nesting in the books on the shelves.<br />
<br />
-- Those who have an office in the building have special privileges when it comes to reserving meeting rooms like LIB105, LIB145, LIB221. Please ask the LIS Administrative Assistant for more information.<br />
<br />
'''Stuff that comes and goes'''<br />
<br />
-- Mailboxes are in the Staff Room, LIB121. Outgoing mail may be left at the Info Desk or in the Staff Room.<br />
<br />
-- Those associated with CTLR generally send and receive faxes through that office at x2418. Those associated with LIS do so through Collection Management at x5698.<br />
<br />
-- Printing arrangements vary throughout the building so please ask your nearby neighbors what they do and don't hesitate to contact the Help Desk for assistance at x2200.<br />
<br />
-- Photocopiers are in the print/copy centers LIB142 and LBI242. Follow the directions attached to the machines to photocopy. See go/print for full information on how to print.<br />
<br />
-- The loading dock is a busy place. If you are notified that a package has arrived for you there, please collect the package as soon as conveniently possible.<br />
<br />
-- The Custodial Team routinely cleans offices on Wednesdays. Please refrain from putting fresh food garbage in your office trash because fresh food waste can attract insects and vermin. Instead, please deposit any such waste in the trash in either a bathroom or in the large bins in the central recycling areas. The Custodians do not routinely empty the small blue recycling bins or the trash bins in your office so you need to empty your own into the large bins in the central areas. Ask your new neighbor where the nearest ones are. Spare trash bags are kept in the supply closet LIB201A.<br />
<br />
Joseph Watson routinely coordinates LIS requests to Facilities Services for things in the building that need to be repaired. Please don't hesitate to ask questions or bring problems to his attention at any time.<br />
<br />
=== COMPACT SHELVING ===<br />
When shelving is malfunctioning please ask for assistance at the Circulation Desk. An override key can usually be used to open an aisle, but please use caution and make sure all aisles are empty before moving a carriage because the override key disables the safety features. If the override key doesn't work, a battery pack override may. The battery pack should always be kept fully charged because using a partially charged battery pack can damage the system.<br />
<br />
All problems should be reported to either the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor or the Facilities Coordinator. Signs will be posted to indicate that there's a known issue, so if there aren't signs posted in the problem area you should assume nobody knows that the shelving isn't working.<br />
<br />
Our compact shelving contractor is Donnegan Systems. If necessary, the Facilities Coordinator will place a service call. If he's unavailable, a service call to Donnegan may be placed at 1-800-222-6311.<br />
<br />
A manual for the compact shelving section L1-L35 can be found here: [[File:CompactShelveManual2009_eclipse.pdf]]<br />
<br />
A log of problems is kept [https://docs.google.com/a/middlebury.edu/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aq2wcICwqfc0dHdRaTFsdDdQNXEtMjNNXy1CdzQ3YlE here..]. please keep it updated.<br />
<br />
Please see this image for the numbering system for the compact shelving carriages.<br />

<br />
<br />
=== DOORS ===<br />
<br />
==== Access: ====<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the exterior front doors into the vestibule is 24/7 for anyone with a valid ID''' Students, Faculty, &amp; Staff have 24x7 access into the Vestibule. (Those with the following cards do not have ''access'' cards (but rather mag stripe only) and therefore cannot use card readers on campus. - Alumni, courtesy card, Friend of college, Spouse/Partner, Breadloaf, Faculty Emeriti, Retiree.)<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the interior front doors and back doors is:'''<br />
<br />
'''24/7 for:''' any staff or faculty member with an office in the building (including Faculty Offices LIB351-360); all Information Technology staff; Facilities Services “master” groups. Facilities Services Custodial access begins at 3am and for the rest of Facilities staff access begins at 6am. Access is occasionally given to Admissions tour guides during holiday weekends.<br />
<br />
'''When the building is open to the public for:''' Dining Services Supervisors; selected vendors making deliveries; faculty/staff who have assigned carrels in the building; anyone who qualifies for "handicapped access".<br />
<br />
'''Handicapped access:''' for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources.&nbsp; Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk.&nbsp; Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access.<br><br />
<br />
Non-ADA access to the back doors may be given at the discretion of the Dean of the Library.<br><br />
<br />
==== Door numbering:<br> ====<br />
<br />
The sets of doors are numbered.&nbsp; This can come in handy when reporting malfunctions to Facilities or Public Safety.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Davis_Lib_exterior_door_numbers_for_wiki.JPG|thumb|left]]<br /><br />
<br /><br />
<br />
==== Hold open feature on automatic doors: ====<br />
<br />
Each of the doors that are equipped with an automatic door opener for handicapped access has a small toggle switch over the interior side of the door. This switch has three positions, off, auto, hold open. '''The switch should be left in the "auto" position.''' If it is turned off the push button used to open the door will not work.<br />
<br />
The "hold open" position can be used to hold the door open. At the back doors use your access card then flip the switch to hold open and the door will open and stay that way until the switch is turned back to auto. At the front doors, press the button to open the doors and then flip the toggle switch.<br />
<br />
====Posting items on doors: ====<br />
Anything posted anywhere except bulletin boards should be removed and recycled. (Some semi-permanant signs for College Offices may be posted, but these should be laminated.) The college handbook states "Posters are permitted on designated bulletin boards or kiosks only. The organization or individual sponsoring an event or making an announcement is responsible for removing the material within 24 hours after the conclusion of the event or within 30 days of the posting, whichever occurs first. Please refrain from posting flyers on doors, walls, windows, buildings, lamp posts, trees or stairwells. Flyers found in these locations will be removed by College staff. Fines and/or disciplinary action may result from violations." (See the College Handbook Sec.8 pt.B)<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Keys: ====<br />
<br />
Keys are tracked and issued through the Dean of LIS's office. Requests for keys are made to the LIS Administrative Assistant. The request must come from the supervisor of the person that the key is being issued to.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
=== ELEVATORS AND STAIRWAYS ===<br />
The elevators and stairways are numbered so they can be referred to in an emergency or for general maintenance issues. Please see the image below for the numbering scheme. During a power outage Elevator #2 will continue to operate on generated power but if the generator stops running the elevator will stop where it is. During a power outage elevators #1 and #3 will go to the lower level, open once, then close and cease to operate.<br />

=== EMERGENCY PHONES ===<br />
<br />
Purpose: The purpose of the emergency phones at Davis Library is to summon emergency responders with the push of a button.<br />
<br />
Equipment: Davis Family Library is equipped with fourteen (14) push button emergency phones. Their locations are:<br />
Lower Level: Four (4) phones, one at each stairwell access.<br />
Main Level: Six (6) phones, one at each stairwell access; one in Wilson Café; one behind the circulation desk.<br />
Upper Level: Four (4) phones, one at each stairwell access.<br />
<br />
Stairwell emergency phones and the phone in Wilson Café are:<br />
• Red in color<br />
• Programmed to dial Public Safety at x5911<br />
The phone behind the circulation desk is:<br />
• Silver in color<br />
• Programmed to dial 911 directly<br />
<br />
Circulation Desk Emergency Phone Protocol<br />
Because the Davis Family Library circulation desk emergency phone is programmed to call 911 directly, it is important to know and follow a protocol for its use. <br />
Protocol<br />
Call 911 by pushing the button when there is an emergency that requires external (non-campus) emergency responders:<br />
• Fire Department<br />
• Police Department<br />
• Emergency Medical Services<br />
If you must call 911:<br />
• First, if you must evacuate to stay safe, evacuate before calling 911. <br />
• Call from a landline or mobile phone if you are in a safe location. Do not leave safety to use the emergency phone if you have other options.<br />
• When using the emergency phone, stay on the line to speak with the dispatcher, if it is safe to do so. Provide as much information as possible.<br />
• If it is not safe to stay at the emergency phone after pushing the button, seek safety while leaving the line open.<br />
• Once answered by the dispatcher, if there is no communication from the caller, the emergency line will remain open for 60 seconds before timing out. This allows the dispatcher to hear what is happening. Important: The dispatcher’s voice will be heard. This is not a “silent alarm”.<br />
• It is critical in the last case that someone makes a phone call to 911 as soon as possible to provide more information about the incident. The call button feature should not be the one and only call to the police.<br />
• To terminate a call, push the button again.<br />
<br />
Accidental Activation: <br />
If you are aware that you have accidentally pressed the button, stay near the phone and inform the answering dispatcher that you accidentally called.<br />
All Other Emergency Phones in Davis Family Library (Red)<br />
All emergency phones (red) other than the circulation desk will call the Public Safety emergency line, 5911. After speaking with the caller about the details of the emergency, Public Safety will determine if 911 needs to be called for outside help, or if the situation can be managed by Public Safety officers.<br />
<br />
=== FALLING ICE OR SNOW, from roof over doors ===<br />
<br />
If dangerous snow or ice accumulates over a door, recruit a staff member to stand guard and alert people of the problem until signage is posted, then call Joseph x5487 and let him know about it. (Call your building coordinator if you're working at a branch library.)<br />
<br />
'''If you do not reach Joseph in person-- &nbsp;'''<br />
<br />
'''for front doors: '''There are large yellow plastic folding signs in the back of closet 201A that should be placed outside on the patio so that people approaching the building are alerted to the problem. There are also laminated 8.5"x11" signs in the wall pocket in 201A that should be taped to the glass on the inside of the exterior doors.&nbsp; Once this has been done, call Facilities Services x5472 (or, if FS is closed call public safety x5911) and alert them to the situation, letting them know that you've posted signage.<br />
<br />
'''for back door:''' use the portable directional signs that are stored in the loading dock and the staff room to post signs outside.&nbsp; Use the spare signs in 201A to post signs on the inside doors.&nbsp; If large icicles have formed over either door post a sign encouraging people to use the other exit.<br />
<br />
These procedures would also be appropriate for any immediate safety hazard that you become aware of. It is very important that any and all of us react to a hazard and keep ourselves, coworkers, and the public, safe from harm. Don't assume somebody else will notice and deal with it, please be proactive and follow up until you're sure that somebody is working to resolve the situation and you're not needed. There are "caution, wet floor" signs in the basement near the custodial supplies.<br><br />
<br />
There is a known issue with snow and ice falling from the roof over the front door. If the weather conditions are just right, the snow melts and compacts and then slides off under the snow guards and over the gutter. Another, but less common problem, is icicles forming in the scuppers over the back doors.<br />
<br />
=== MAINTENANCE REQUESTS ===<br />
Routine requests for Davis Library are funneled through the LIS Facilitates Coor., Joseph Watson. Things like broken locks, burned out light bulbs, plugged toilets, etc., should be reported to Joseph who will then place a request with Facilities Services. When Joseph is out of the office, Doreen Bernier the Asst. to the Dean of LIS can also place requests.<br />
Any problems that could be considered a safety hazard should be reported immediately, and if you don't reach Joseph, the problem should be reported directly to the Facilities Expeditor at x5472.<br />
<br />
=== POWER OUTAGES ===<br />
<br />
See Davis Library Emergency Manual for emergency procedures. http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
When the main power to the building fails, a generator located in the basement under the staff room should automatically start and power portions of the building as follows:<br />
*Elevator #2 (near loading dock) will operate normally.<br />
*Elevators #1 and #3 will automatically go to level 1, will open and shut once, then will no longer operate. If the generator fails to operate all elevators stop.<br />
*Card access and alarm systems.<br />
*ITS machine/server room.<br />
*Circulation desk.<br />
*Some lighting (but not all lights) sufficient to illuminate pathways to exits.<br />
<br />
Compact shelving will not operate; loading dock overhead door will not operate; most outlets will not work; phone system will work as long as battery backup lasts; PA system will work as long as phone system works.<br />
<br />
If the generator fails to operate, the door locking system runs on battery and will only last a little while. If this happens ask Public Safety (x5911) to put the doors in card access mode to save the battery backup and also tell them we are propping the doors open. Retrieve concrete blocks from closet 201A and prop one exterior door and one interior door open.<br />
<br />
If the power comes back on right away but the generator has already started, then the generator will run for about a half hour before shutting down. If this happens some parts of the building may smell like exhaust because the exhaust for the generator is on the roof near the air intake for the HVAC system. (This isn't a problem if the power is out because the HVAC system is shut off.)<br />
<br />
When we lose electricity the fire doors on staircase #1-#4 will shut and should be reopened as needed when the power returns. Sometimes the crash bar alarms on the emergency exits will sound after the power comes back on and will need to be reset by either the LIS Facilities Coor. or Facilities Services. Some of the compact shelving may not operate properly after a power outage and will need to be reset by the LIS Facilities Coor., or the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor.<br />
<br />
=== WATER LEAKS/INCURSIONS ===<br />
<br />
==== Reporting a leak, how to: ====<br />
If the water leak is severe and causing damage to library collections or equipment, follow the procedures in the emergency manual here-- http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
'''When a water leak is noticed and it is minor and not causing damage''' to collections or equipment, report it to Joseph Watson x5487. If you don't reach Joseph, leave him a message about the leak and then contact Facilities Services directly at x5472. If FS is closed (evenings and weekends) call the Office of Public Safety and ask them to reach FS on-call personnel if deemed necessary. Describe the situation giving them all details as needed and realistically indicating the severity of the situation. If placing a basket under the leak until regular FS staff can come during normal working hours will suffice, please do so but inform PS so that they can have the night watch guard check on the leak.<br />

=== DOORS ===<br />
<br />
==== Access: ====<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the exterior front doors into the vestibule is 24/7 for anyone with a valid ID''' Students, Faculty, &amp; Staff have 24x7 access into the Vestibule. (Those with the following cards do not have ''access'' cards (but rather mag stripe only) and therefore cannot use card readers on campus. - Alumni, courtesy card, Friend of college, Spouse/Partner, Breadloaf, Faculty Emeriti, Retiree.)<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the interior front doors and back doors is:'''<br />
<br />
'''24/7 for:''' any staff or faculty member with an office in the building (including Faculty Offices LIB351-360); all Information Technology staff; Facilities Services “master” groups. Facilities Services Custodial access begins at 3am and for the rest of Facilities staff access begins at 6am. Access is occasionally given to Admissions tour guides during holiday weekends.<br />
<br />
'''When the building is open to the public for:''' Dining Services Supervisors; selected vendors making deliveries; faculty/staff who have assigned carrels in the building; anyone who qualifies for "handicapped access".<br />
<br />
'''Handicapped access:''' for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources.&nbsp; Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk.&nbsp; Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access.<br><br />
<br />
Non-ADA access to the back doors may be given at the discretion of the Dean of the Library.<br><br />
<br />
==== Door numbering:<br> ====<br />
<br />
The sets of doors are numbered.&nbsp; This can come in handy when reporting malfunctions to Facilities or Public Safety.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Davis_Lib_exterior_door_numbers_for_wiki.JPG|thumb|left]]<br /><br />
<br /><br />
<br />
==== Hold open feature on automatic doors: ====<br />
<br />
Each of the doors that are equipped with an automatic door opener for handicapped access has a small toggle switch over the interior side of the door. This switch has three positions, off, auto, hold open. '''The switch should be left in the "auto" position.''' If it is turned off the push button used to open the door will not work.<br />
<br />
The "hold open" position can be used to hold the door open. At the back doors use your access card then flip the switch to hold open and the door will open and stay that way until the switch is turned back to auto. At the front doors, press the button to open the doors and then flip the toggle switch.<br />
<br />
====Posting items on doors: ====<br />
Anything posted anywhere except bulletin boards should be removed and recycled. (Some semi-permanant signs for College Offices may be posted, but these should be laminated.) The college handbook states "Posters are permitted on designated bulletin boards or kiosks only. The organization or individual sponsoring an event or making an announcement is responsible for removing the material within 24 hours after the conclusion of the event or within 30 days of the posting, whichever occurs first. Please refrain from posting flyers on doors, walls, windows, buildings, lamp posts, trees or stairwells. Flyers found in these locations will be removed by College staff. Fines and/or disciplinary action may result from violations." (See the College Handbook Sec.8 pt.B)<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Keys: ====<br />
<br />
Keys are tracked and issued through the Dean of LIS's office. Requests for keys are made to the LIS Administrative Assistant. The request must come from the supervisor of the person that the key is being issued to.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
=== ELEVATORS AND STAIRWAYS ===<br />
The elevators and stairways are numbered so they can be referred to in an emergency or for general maintenance issues. Please see the image below for the numbering scheme. During a power outage Elevator #2 will continue to operate on generated power but if the generator stops running the elevator will stop where it is. During a power outage elevators #1 and #3 will go to the lower level, open once, then close and cease to operate.<br />

=== EMERGENCY PHONES ===<br />
<br />
Purpose: The purpose of the emergency phones at Davis Library is to summon emergency responders with the push of a button.<br />
Equipment: Davis Family Library is equipped with fourteen (14) push button emergency phones. Their locations are:<br />
Lower Level: Four (4) phones, one at each stairwell access.<br />
Main Level: Six (6) phones, one at each stairwell access; one in Wilson Café; one behind the circulation desk.<br />
Upper Level: Four (4) phones, one at each stairwell access.<br />
Stairwell emergency phones and the phone in Wilson Café are:<br />
• Red in color<br />
• Programmed to dial Public Safety at x5911<br />
The phone behind the circulation desk is:<br />
• Silver in color<br />
• Programmed to dial 911 directly<br />
Circulation Desk Emergency Phone Protocol<br />
Because the Davis Family Library circulation desk emergency phone is programmed to call 911 directly, it is important to know and follow a protocol for its use. <br />
Protocol<br />
Call 911 by pushing the button when there is an emergency that requires external (non-campus) emergency responders:<br />
• Fire Department<br />
• Police Department<br />
• Emergency Medical Services<br />
If you must call 911:<br />
• First, if you must evacuate to stay safe, evacuate before calling 911. <br />
• Call from a landline or mobile phone if you are in a safe location. Do not leave safety to use the emergency phone if you have other options.<br />
• When using the emergency phone, stay on the line to speak with the dispatcher, if it is safe to do so. Provide as much information as possible.<br />
• If it is not safe to stay at the emergency phone after pushing the button, seek safety while leaving the line open.<br />
• Once answered by the dispatcher, if there is no communication from the caller, the emergency line will remain open for 60 seconds before timing out. This allows the dispatcher to hear what is happening. Important: The dispatcher’s voice will be heard. This is not a “silent alarm”.<br />
• It is critical in the last case that someone makes a phone call to 911 as soon as possible to provide more information about the incident. The call button feature should not be the one and only call to the police.<br />
• To terminate a call, push the button again.<br />
Accidental Activation: <br />
If you are aware that you have accidentally pressed the button, stay near the phone and inform the answering dispatcher that you accidentally called.<br />
All Other Emergency Phones in Davis Family Library (Red)<br />
All emergency phones (red) other than the circulation desk will call the Public Safety emergency line, 5911. After speaking with the caller about the details of the emergency, Public Safety will determine if 911 needs to be called for outside help, or if the situation can be managed by Public Safety officers.<br />
<br />
=== FALLING ICE OR SNOW, from roof over doors ===<br />
<br />
If dangerous snow or ice accumulates over a door, recruit a staff member to stand guard and alert people of the problem until signage is posted, then call Joseph x5487 and let him know about it. (Call your building coordinator if you're working at a branch library.)<br />
<br />
'''If you do not reach Joseph in person-- &nbsp;'''<br />
<br />
'''for front doors: '''There are large yellow plastic folding signs in the back of closet 201A that should be placed outside on the patio so that people approaching the building are alerted to the problem. There are also laminated 8.5"x11" signs in the wall pocket in 201A that should be taped to the glass on the inside of the exterior doors.&nbsp; Once this has been done, call Facilities Services x5472 (or, if FS is closed call public safety x5911) and alert them to the situation, letting them know that you've posted signage.<br />
<br />
'''for back door:''' use the portable directional signs that are stored in the loading dock and the staff room to post signs outside.&nbsp; Use the spare signs in 201A to post signs on the inside doors.&nbsp; If large icicles have formed over either door post a sign encouraging people to use the other exit.<br />
<br />
These procedures would also be appropriate for any immediate safety hazard that you become aware of. It is very important that any and all of us react to a hazard and keep ourselves, coworkers, and the public, safe from harm. Don't assume somebody else will notice and deal with it, please be proactive and follow up until you're sure that somebody is working to resolve the situation and you're not needed. There are "caution, wet floor" signs in the basement near the custodial supplies.<br><br />
<br />
There is a known issue with snow and ice falling from the roof over the front door. If the weather conditions are just right, the snow melts and compacts and then slides off under the snow guards and over the gutter. Another, but less common problem, is icicles forming in the scuppers over the back doors.<br />
<br />
=== MAINTENANCE REQUESTS ===<br />
Routine requests for Davis Library are funneled through the LIS Facilitates Coor., Joseph Watson. Things like broken locks, burned out light bulbs, plugged toilets, etc., should be reported to Joseph who will then place a request with Facilities Services. When Joseph is out of the office, Doreen Bernier the Asst. to the Dean of LIS can also place requests.<br />
Any problems that could be considered a safety hazard should be reported immediately, and if you don't reach Joseph, the problem should be reported directly to the Facilities Expeditor at x5472.<br />
<br />
=== POWER OUTAGES ===<br />
<br />
See Davis Library Emergency Manual for emergency procedures. http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
When the main power to the building fails, a generator located in the basement under the staff room should automatically start and power portions of the building as follows:<br />
*Elevator #2 (near loading dock) will operate normally.<br />
*Elevators #1 and #3 will automatically go to level 1, will open and shut once, then will no longer operate. If the generator fails to operate all elevators stop.<br />
*Card access and alarm systems.<br />
*ITS machine/server room.<br />
*Circulation desk.<br />
*Some lighting (but not all lights) sufficient to illuminate pathways to exits.<br />
<br />
Compact shelving will not operate; loading dock overhead door will not operate; most outlets will not work; phone system will work as long as battery backup lasts; PA system will work as long as phone system works.<br />
<br />
If the generator fails to operate, the door locking system runs on battery and will only last a little while. If this happens ask Public Safety (x5911) to put the doors in card access mode to save the battery backup and also tell them we are propping the doors open. Retrieve concrete blocks from closet 201A and prop one exterior door and one interior door open.<br />
<br />
If the power comes back on right away but the generator has already started, then the generator will run for about a half hour before shutting down. If this happens some parts of the building may smell like exhaust because the exhaust for the generator is on the roof near the air intake for the HVAC system. (This isn't a problem if the power is out because the HVAC system is shut off.)<br />
<br />
When we lose electricity the fire doors on staircase #1-#4 will shut and should be reopened as needed when the power returns. Sometimes the crash bar alarms on the emergency exits will sound after the power comes back on and will need to be reset by either the LIS Facilities Coor. or Facilities Services. Some of the compact shelving may not operate properly after a power outage and will need to be reset by the LIS Facilities Coor., or the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor.<br />
<br />
=== WATER LEAKS/INCURSIONS ===<br />
<br />
==== Reporting a leak, how to: ====<br />
If the water leak is severe and causing damage to library collections or equipment, follow the procedures in the emergency manual here-- http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
'''When a water leak is noticed and it is minor and not causing damage''' to collections or equipment, report it to Joseph Watson x5487. If you don't reach Joseph, leave him a message about the leak and then contact Facilities Services directly at x5472. If FS is closed (evenings and weekends) call the Office of Public Safety and ask them to reach FS on-call personnel if deemed necessary. Describe the situation giving them all details as needed and realistically indicating the severity of the situation. If placing a basket under the leak until regular FS staff can come during normal working hours will suffice, please do so but inform PS so that they can have the night watch guard check on the leak.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Storm drain, exterior, overflow: ====<br />
<br />
During very heavy rains the storm drains that are just outside of the emergency exits at the bottom of staircases number 1 and 4 have been known to overflow. Instead of water going down them, water flows up and out of them like a geyser. This problem was severe enough to cause water to flow under the door at the bottom of staircase number 4 and flow into the lower level soaking the carpet adjacent to the Harman Reading Area as well as seeping under the wall into the reception area of Special Collections soaking the carpet there. This is a known issue as of the Summer of 2008.&nbsp; If we receive very heavy rains, it makes sense to check these areas to see if there is a problem and then report it as needed following the instructions in the "reporting a leak" section of this wiki.&nbsp; If water is flowing under the door, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR because the door might be holding back a quantity of water.<br></div>Joseph Watsonhttps://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/LIS/index.php?title=Work_and_Meeting_Spaces&diff=37726Work and Meeting Spaces2018-07-02T15:08:39Z<p>Joseph Watson: /* Print/Copy/Fax/Type */</p>

<br />
=== ADA Access ===<br />
<br />
Library and Information Services strives to provide the best possible service to persons with disabilities. To request special accommodations not mentioned here, please contact the Middlebury College ADA office in Meeker House. 802-443-5936 (voice) ada@middlebury.edu&nbsp;&nbsp; 802-443-7437 (TTY) 802-443-2440 (fax) <br><br />
<br />
'''Entrance'''<br />
<br />
Users are encouraged to park in the designated spots on Old Chapel Road and enter the library through the front door. Special access to the Storrs Ave. doors for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources. Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk. Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access<br><br />
<br />
'''Emergency Exits'''<br />
<br />
Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />
<br />
Elevator #2 in the NE corner of the building is designed to operate on the emergency generator during a power failure.<br><br />
<br />
'''Retrieving Materials'''<br>Some users may not be able to reach all of the library shelves and some people may have trouble reading the call numbers on the spines of the books. Users may request assistance with book retrieval by contacting Circulation Services in person, by phone x5494, or email. <br>library_circulation@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
'''Equipment Available'''<br>Special equipment is available in LIB241, right around the corner from the print /copy center on the Main Level. There you’ll find a CCTV magnifying viewer and a computer workstation with a zoom text viewer and reader, as well as Dragon voice recognition software for English and Spanish. Ask for the “ADA computer” password at the Circulation Desk or Research Desk.<br />
<br />
=== Carrels<br> ===<br />
<br />
[http://www.go.middlebury.edu/carrels go/carrels]<br />
<br />
Located throughout the library, 202 total.<br><br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "[http://www.middlebury.edu/about/handbook/ug-college-policies/ug-policies/res-life-conduct-policies/genl-cond-standards Community Standards]" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements, incitement to violence, or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' <br />
<br />
'''To reserve one of these spaces, please fill out this form:''' https://forms.middlebury.edu/academics/lib/borrow/atrium-display-request-form/node/723<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. No material that could pose a safety hazard is allowed to be part of the display; barbed wire, glass, etc. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents. <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Two identical units are available. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels to hold stiff posters (you provide the foam core or card board backing) up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90" (39.5" is optimal width). It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is placed on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Banner stand.JPG|thumb|none|Banner stand.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email kgurney@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />

<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea and reserve the space, fill out the form here: https://forms.middlebury.edu/academics/lib/borrow/atrium-display-request-form/node/723<br />
<br />
''Once your display is scheduled--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments Consider using the plotter in the Wilson Media Lab to produce large backdrops.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Circulation Desk staff who scheduled your display. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />
'''The following staff members are available to help you prepare and install your display:'''<br />

<br />
LIB 220 (Davis Family Library Main Level)<br />
Capacity = 15<br />
<br />
The Wilson Media Lab is dedicated primarily to the support and development of media projects. Digital Media Tutors and other Academic Technology staff in the lab can help researchers with any form of media, whether for a group project or a class presentation. Regular training sessions are open to all. Faculty members may get help with a class web page or with incorporating multimedia into course design or research.<br />
<br />
The room is also used for research workshops. Non-library staff and faculty may reserve the room, no earlier than 7 days in advance, by contacting Doreen Bernier (dbernier@middlebury.edu or x5595).<br />
<br />
The room should be used for training sessions where every individual needs a computer; meetings should not be scheduled in this room.<br />
<br />
If the room is not being used for a training session, it is open as a computer lab.<br />
<br />
''Guidelines for Library staff who wish to schedule the room:''<br />
<br />
For workshops that require specialized software in the Wilson Media Lab:<br />
#If the lab is not available then look for another space with the same software. Depending on the required software, the virtual desktop might be a solution.<br />
#If no alternatives are available, determine whether the workshop can be scheduled at another date/time. (Course-related workshops have less flexibility than open workshops.)<br />
#If the workshop cannot be scheduled at another date/time, contact the person who has booked the lab and ask if you can look for another space for them. If there are no alternatives, your request cannot be accommodated. Try for another date/time.<br />
<br />
For research workshops:<br />
#Consider: Can it be held in another space in the library? Especially when the workshop is more than one month away, try to use another room. Can it be held in the Armstrong Library (MBH161)? Most of these workshops are course-related; can your workshop be held in the regular course meeting space?<br />
#If you cannot use another room, schedule the workshop in the lab.<br />
<br />
Other spaces to consider for workshops (check for yourself before you book!):<br />
*LIB140<br />
*LIB145<br />
*LIB221<br />
*LIB116 (no projection)<br />
*LIB131 (no projection)<br />

*and more [http://www.middlebury.edu/offices/technology/help/technology/equipment/computers here in this list of public computers]<br />
*''LIB140, MBH116/117 and SDL 122 are scheduled by the Scheduling Office. CTLR spaces are scheduled by JoAnn Brewer. MBH161 is scheduled by Armstrong staff and librarians. Most of the other library rooms in the list are in Outlook and I believe that Library and ITS staff should be able to book them directly.<br />

<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships.

Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />

No material that could pose a safety hazard is allowed to be part of the display; barbed wire, glass, etc. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents. <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; kgurney@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />

<br />
<br><br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels to hold stiff posters (you provide the foam core or card board backing) up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90" (39.5" is optimal width). It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is placed on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Banner stand.JPG|thumb|none|Banner stand.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email kgurney@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />

<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once your display is scheduled--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments Consider using the plotter in the Wilson Media Lab to produce large backdrops.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Circulation Desk staff who scheduled your display. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />
'''The following staff members are available to help you prepare and install your display:'''<br />
<br />
*Scheduling space and equipment, signage, etc.: Kimberly Gurney (x2119, Circulation Desk)<br />
*Computer equipment, or media copying/DVD creation: the Technology Helpdesk (x2200, LIB202)<br />
*Media Production: Joe Antonioli (x3062, LIB213) or see [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development this page].&nbsp; <br><br />
*Plotter for printing large-scale posters or backdrops: Digital Media Tutors in Wilson Media Lab (LIB220)<br />
*Advice on aesthetic or artistic choices: Danielle Rougeau (x5634, LIB101)<br />
*Book Status Change: Dan Frostman, Circulation Services (x2392. LIB250A)<br />

<br />
LIB 220 (Davis Family Library Main Level)<br />
Capacity = 15<br />
<br />
The Wilson Media Lab is dedicated primarily to the support and development of media projects. Digital Media Tutors and other Academic Technology staff in the lab can help researchers with any form of media, whether for a group project or a class presentation.

The room is also used for research workshops. Non-library staff and faculty may reserve the room, no earlier than 7 days in advance, by contacting Doreen Bernier (dbernier@middlebury.edu or x5595).<br />
<br />
The room should be used for training sessions where every individual needs a computer; meetings should not be scheduled in this room.<br />
<br />
If the room is not being used for a training session, it is open as a computer lab.<br />
<br />
''Guidelines for Library staff who wish to schedule the room:''<br />
<br />
For workshops that require specialized software in the Wilson Media Lab:<br />
#If the lab is not available then look for another space with the same software. Depending on the required software, the virtual desktop might be a solution.<br />
#If no alternatives are available, determine whether the workshop can be scheduled at another date/time. (Course-related workshops have less flexibility than open workshops.)<br />
#If the workshop cannot be scheduled at another date/time, contact the person who has booked the lab and ask if you can look for another space for them. If there are no alternatives, your request cannot be accommodated. Try for another date/time.<br />
<br />
For research workshops:<br />
#Consider: Can it be held in another space in the library? Especially when the workshop is more than one month away, try to use another room. Can it be held in the Armstrong Library (MBH161)? Most of these workshops are course-related; can your workshop be held in the regular course meeting space?<br />
#If you cannot use another room, schedule the workshop in the lab.<br />
<br />

=== ADA Access ===<br />
<br />
Library and Information Services strives to provide the best possible service to persons with disabilities. To request special accommodations not mentioned here, please contact the Middlebury College ADA office in Meeker House. 802-443-5936 (voice) ada@middlebury.edu&nbsp;&nbsp; 802-443-7437 (TTY) 802-443-2440 (fax) <br><br />
<br />
'''Entrance'''<br />
<br />
Users are encouraged to park in the designated spots on Old Chapel Road and enter the library through the front door. Special access to the Storrs Ave. doors for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources. Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk. Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access<br><br />
<br />
'''Emergency Exits'''<br />
<br />
Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />
<br />
Elevator #2 in the NE corner of the building is designed to operate on the emergency generator during a power failure.<br><br />
<br />
'''Retrieving Materials'''<br>Some users may not be able to reach all of the library shelves and some people may have trouble reading the call numbers on the spines of the books. Users may request assistance with book retrieval by contacting Circulation Services in person, by phone x5494, or email. <br>library_circulation@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
'''Equipment Available'''<br>Special equipment is available in LIB241, right around the corner from the print /copy center on the Main Level. There you’ll find a CCTV magnifying viewer and a computer workstation with a zoom text viewer and reader, as well as Dragon voice recognition software for English and Spanish.

<br />
=== Carrels<br> ===<br />
<br />
[http://www.go.middlebury.edu/carrels go/carrels]<br />
<br />
Located throughout the library, 202 total.<br><br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? [http://mailto:kgurney@middlebury.edu kgurney@middlebury.edu] OR fill out this form: https://forms.middlebury.edu/academics/lib/borrow/atrium-display-request-form/node/723<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. No material that could pose a safety hazard is allowed to be part of the display; barbed wire, glass, etc. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents. <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; kgurney@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Two identical units are available. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels to hold stiff posters (you provide the foam core or card board backing) up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90" (39.5" is optimal width). It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is placed on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Banner stand.JPG|thumb|none|Banner stand.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email kgurney@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />

<br />
The room should be used for training sessions where every individual needs a computer; meetings should not be scheduled in this room.<br />
<br />
If the room is not being used for a training session, it is open as a computer lab.<br />
<br />
''Guidelines for Library staff who wish to schedule the room:''<br />
<br />
For workshops that require specialized software in the Wilson Media Lab:<br />
#If the lab is not available then look for another space with the same software. Depending on the required software, the virtual desktop might be a solution.<br />
#If no alternatives are available, determine whether the workshop can be scheduled at another date/time. (Course-related workshops have less flexibility than open workshops.)<br />
#If the workshop cannot be scheduled at another date/time, contact the person who has booked the lab and ask if you can look for another space for them. If there are no alternatives, your request cannot be accommodated. Try for another date/time.<br />
<br />
For research workshops:<br />
#Consider: Can it be held in another space in the library? Especially when the workshop is more than one month away, try to use another room. Can it be held in the Armstrong Library (MBH161)? Most of these workshops are course-related; can your workshop be held in the regular course meeting space?<br />
#If you cannot use another room, schedule the workshop in the lab.<br />

=== Carrels<br> ===<br />
<br />
[http://www.go.middlebury.edu/carrels go/carrels]<br />
<br />
Located throughout the library, 202 total.<br><br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? [http://mailto:kgurney@middlebury.edu kgurney@middlebury.edu] OR fill out this form: https://forms.middlebury.edu/academics/lib/borrow/atrium-display-request-form/node/723<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. No material that could pose a safety hazard is allowed to be part of the display; barbed wire, glass, etc. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents. <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; kgurney@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Two identical units are available. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />
<br />

|}<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels to hold stiff posters (you provide the foam core or card board backing) up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90" (39.5" is optimal width). It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is placed on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Banner stand.JPG|thumb|none|Banner stand.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email kgurney@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />

=== Wilson Media Development Lab <br> ===<br />
<br />
LIB 220 (Davis Family Library Main Level)<br />

The Wilson Media Lab is dedicated primarily to the support and development of media projects. Digital Media Tutors and other Academic Technology staff in the lab can help researchers with any form of media, whether for a group project or a class presentation. Regular training sessions are open to all. Faculty members may get help with a class web page or with incorporating multimedia into course design or research.<br />
<br />
The room is also used for research workshops. Non-library staff and faculty may reserve the room, no earlier than 7 days in advance, by contacting Doreen Bernier (dbernier@middlebury.edu or x5595).<br />
<br />
The room should be used for training sessions where every individual needs a computer; meetings should not be scheduled in this room.<br />
<br />
If the room is not being used for a training session, it is open as a computer lab.<br />
<br />
''Guidelines for Library staff who wish to schedule the room:''<br />
<br />
For workshops that require specialized software in the Wilson Media Lab:<br />
#If the lab is not available then look for another space with the same software. Depending on the required software, the virtual desktop might be a solution.<br />
#If no alternatives are available, determine whether the workshop can be scheduled at another date/time. (Course-related workshops have less flexibility than open workshops.)<br />
#If the workshop cannot be scheduled at another date/time, contact the person who has booked the lab and ask if you can look for another space for them. If there are no alternatives, your request cannot be accommodated. Try for another date/time.<br />
<br />
For research workshops:<br />
#Consider: Can it be held in another space in the library? Especially when the workshop is more than one month away, try to use another room. Can it be held in the Armstrong Library (MBH161)? Most of these workshops are course-related; can your workshop be held in the regular course meeting space?<br />
#If you cannot use another room, schedule the workshop in the lab.<br />
<br />
Other spaces to consider for workshops (check for yourself before you book!):<br />

Most of the other library rooms in the list are in Outlook and I believe that Library and ITS staff should be able to book them directly.<br />

<hr />
<div>=== GENERAL INFO ===<br />
The following is a partial overview of general building information that is shared with new LIS employees with offices in Davis Library. It is posted here as an overview/reminder for everyone. (Some information in the original email has been omitted for security purposes.)<br />
<br />
Because the library is not just a classroom and office building, but also stores some of the most valuable collections owned by the College, having an office here is unique and I'd like to call a few things to your attention.<br />
<br />
'''Emergency Preparedness'''<br />
<br />
All Middlebury College employees should become and stay familiar with the College-wide Emergency Response Procedures on the web at [http://www.middlebury.edu/er go/er] If Davis Library or Voter Hall are evacuated, the designated meeting area for staff is in front of Warner Hall. If Armstrong Library is evacuated the designated meeting area is on the hill next to Lang Dorm. If you work at a public service desk that deals with customers face to face, there may be additional emergency procedures that you should know about, so please ask your supervisor for an orientation to any department specific emergency manual.<br />
<br />
'''Access and Security'''<br />
<br />
-- You have (or shortly will have) card access to the exterior doors because you are a building "resident". That means that you can come and go whenever you want, including when the building is not open to the public. If you are in the building when it is not open to the public and you see any suspicious behavior, please call the Office of Public Safety (x5911) to let them know. You should never let anyone enter the building with you when it is not open to the public. Everyone who has good reason to be in the building when it is closed has been given card access.<br />
<br />
-- You are responsible for helping LIS maintain the security of the collections and therefore, even when the building is open to the public, please do not let people in or out through the back, Storrs Ave. doors unless they are physically unable to walk to the front door. Those without card access should exit the building through the front doors. While this is an inconvenience at times, it is important to maintain just one entrance and exit to the building for the sake of the security of the collections. If you allow someone you know to enter through the back doors with you as a favor, please remind them that they must exit through the front door. If you have a visitor and you would like to escort them to the back door as they leave, you are welcome to do so as long as they are not taking any library materials with them that they have not checked out.<br />
<br />
-- There is a toggle switch just above the doors as you exit the building. This switch controls the automatic door feature for handicapped access and should always be left in the "auto" position. If you would like a detailed, hands on explanation of this feature do not hesitate to ask me for one.<br />
<br />
-- Every now and then you might find that the interior doors do not unlock after you've used your access card. This is usually because somebody else has recently exited or entered and the doors had not reset when your card was read. If this happens, simply go back outside, wait a moment, then use your card again. It is impossible to get stuck between the two sets of doors because the exterior doors have a crash bar that can be used to open the doors even if they are locked.<br />
<br />
-- The emergency exit doors at the bottom of staircases #1 & #4 should not be used except in an emergency.<br />
<br />
-- The key to your office also opens common spaces like the staff room, loading dock, classrooms, and meeting rooms.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Office logistics'''<br />
<br />
-- If you want to keep library materials in your office, please help LIS maintain accurate collections information by taking a few moments to stop by the Circulation Desk to check them out.<br />
<br />
-- The use of heat-generating small appliances (like coffee makers, hot plates, etc.) in offices is discouraged because they can be a fire hazard. If you do use such appliances in your office they must have an automatic shut off feature. You are, of course, encouraged to use the Staff Room in LIB121 where you will find a well equipped kitchen.<br />
<br />
-- Of course the use of open flames (like candles or potpourri burners) is strictly prohibited.<br />
<br />
-- Please keep any food you have stored in your office in sealed containers. We have occasionally had a problem with mice in the building and you don't want mice feeding on that open dish of chocolate on top of your desk any more than we want those mice nesting in the books on the shelves.<br />
<br />
-- Those who have an office in the building have special privileges when it comes to reserving meeting rooms like LIB105, LIB145, LIB221. Please ask the LIS Administrative Assistant for more information.<br />
<br />
'''Stuff that comes and goes'''<br />
<br />
-- Mailboxes are in the Staff Room, LIB121. Outgoing mail may be left at the Info Desk or in the Staff Room.<br />
<br />
-- Those associated with CTLR generally send and receive faxes through that office at x2418. Those associated with LIS do so through Collection Management at x5698.<br />
<br />
-- Printing arrangements vary throughout the building so please ask your nearby neighbors what they do and don't hesitate to contact the Help Desk for assistance at x2200.<br />
<br />
-- Photocopiers are in the print/copy centers LIB142 and LBI242. Follow the directions attached to the machines to photocopy. See go/print for full information on how to print.<br />
<br />
-- The loading dock is a busy place. If you are notified that a package has arrived for you there, please collect the package as soon as conveniently possible.<br />
<br />
-- The Custodial Team routinely cleans offices on Wednesdays. Please refrain from putting fresh food garbage in your office trash because fresh food waste can attract insects and vermin. Instead, please deposit any such waste in the trash in either a bathroom or in the large bins in the central recycling areas. The Custodians do not routinely empty the small blue recycling bins or the trash bins in your office so you need to empty your own into the large bins in the central areas. Ask your new neighbor where the nearest ones are. Spare trash bags are kept in the supply closet LIB201A.<br />
<br />
Joseph Watson routinely coordinates LIS requests to Facilities Services for things in the building that need to be repaired. Please don't hesitate to ask questions or bring problems to his attention at any time.<br />
<br />
=== COMPACT SHELVING ===<br />
When shelving is malfunctioning please ask for assistance at the Circulation Desk. An override key can usually be used to open an aisle, but please use caution and make sure all aisles are empty before moving a carriage because the override key disables the safety features. If the override key doesn't work, a battery pack override may. The battery pack should always be kept fully charged because using a partially charged battery pack can damage the system.<br />
<br />
All problems should be reported to either the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor or the Facilities Coordinator. Signs will be posted to indicate that there's a known issue, so if there aren't signs posted in the problem area you should assume nobody knows that the shelving isn't working.<br />
<br />
Our compact shelving contractor is Donnegan Systems. If necessary, the Facilities Coordinator will place a service call. If he's unavailable, a service call to Donnegan may be placed at 1-800-222-6311.<br />
<br />
A manual for the compact shelving section L1-L35 can be found here: [[File:CompactShelveManual2009_eclipse.pdf]]<br />
<br />
A log of problems is kept [https://docs.google.com/a/middlebury.edu/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aq2wcICwqfc0dHdRaTFsdDdQNXEtMjNNXy1CdzQ3YlE here..]. please keep it updated.<br />

'''When the building is open to the public for:''' Dining Services Supervisors; selected vendors making deliveries; faculty/staff who have assigned carrels in the building; anyone who qualifies for "handicapped access".<br />
<br />
'''Handicapped access:''' for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources.&nbsp; Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk.&nbsp; Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access.<br><br />
<br />
Non-ADA access to the back doors may be given at the discretion of the Dean of the Library.<br><br />
<br />
==== Door numbering:<br> ====<br />
<br />
The sets of doors are numbered.&nbsp; This can come in handy when reporting malfunctions to Facilities or Public Safety.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Davis_Lib_exterior_door_numbers_for_wiki.JPG|thumb|left]]<br /><br />
<br /><br />
<br />
==== Hold open feature on automatic doors: ====<br />
<br />
Each of the doors that are equipped with an automatic door opener for handicapped access has a small toggle switch over the interior side of the door. This switch has three positions, off, auto, hold open. '''The switch should be left in the "auto" position.''' If it is turned off the push button used to open the door will not work.<br />
<br />
The "hold open" position can be used to hold the door open. At the back doors use your access card then flip the switch to hold open and the door will open and stay that way until the switch is turned back to auto. At the front doors, press the button to open the doors and then flip the toggle switch.<br />
<br />
====Posting items on doors: ====<br />
Anything posted anywhere except bulletin boards should be removed and recycled. (Some semi-permanant signs for College Offices may be posted, but these should be laminated.) The college handbook states "Posters are permitted on designated bulletin boards or kiosks only. The organization or individual sponsoring an event or making an announcement is responsible for removing the material within 24 hours after the conclusion of the event or within 30 days of the posting, whichever occurs first. Please refrain from posting flyers on doors, walls, windows, buildings, lamp posts, trees or stairwells. Flyers found in these locations will be removed by College staff. Fines and/or disciplinary action may result from violations." (See the College Handbook Sec.8 pt.B)<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Keys: ====<br />
<br />
Keys are tracked and issued through the Dean of LIS's office. Requests for keys are made to the LIS Administrative Assistant. The request must come from the supervisor of the person that the key is being issued to.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
=== ELEVATORS AND STAIRWAYS ===<br />
The elevators and stairways are numbered so they can be referred to in an emergency or for general maintenance issues. Please see the image below for the numbering scheme. During a power outage Elevator #2 will continue to operate on generated power but if the generator stops running the elevator will stop where it is. During a power outage elevators #1 and #3 will go to the lower level, open once, then close and cease to operate.<br />

=== FALLING ICE OR SNOW, from roof over doors ===<br />
<br />
If dangerous snow or ice accumulates over a door, recruit a staff member to stand guard and alert people of the problem until signage is posted, then call Joseph x5487 and let him know about it. (Call your building coordinator if you're working at a branch library.)<br />
<br />
'''If you do not reach Joseph in person-- &nbsp;'''<br />
<br />
'''for front doors: '''There are large yellow plastic folding signs in the back of closet 201A that should be placed outside on the patio so that people approaching the building are alerted to the problem. There are also laminated 8.5"x11" signs in the wall pocket in 201A that should be taped to the glass on the inside of the exterior doors.&nbsp; Once this has been done, call Facilities Services x5472 (or, if FS is closed call public safety x5911) and alert them to the situation, letting them know that you've posted signage.<br />
<br />
'''for back door:''' use the portable directional signs that are stored in the loading dock and the staff room to post signs outside.&nbsp; Use the spare signs in 201A to post signs on the inside doors.&nbsp; If large icicles have formed over either door post a sign encouraging people to use the other exit.<br />
<br />
These procedures would also be appropriate for any immediate safety hazard that you become aware of. It is very important that any and all of us react to a hazard and keep ourselves, coworkers, and the public, safe from harm. Don't assume somebody else will notice and deal with it, please be proactive and follow up until you're sure that somebody is working to resolve the situation and you're not needed. There are "caution, wet floor" signs in the basement near the custodial supplies.<br><br />
<br />
There is a known issue with snow and ice falling from the roof over the front door. If the weather conditions are just right, the snow melts and compacts and then slides off under the snow guards and over the gutter. Another, but less common problem, is icicles forming in the scuppers over the back doors.<br />
<br />
=== MAINTENANCE REQUESTS ===<br />
Routine requests for Davis Library are funneled through the LIS Facilitates Coor., Joseph Watson. Things like broken locks, burned out light bulbs, plugged toilets, etc., should be reported to Joseph who will then place a request with Facilities Services. When Joseph is out of the office, Doreen Bernier the Asst. to the Dean of LIS can also place requests.<br />
Any problems that could be considered a safety hazard should be reported immediately, and if you don't reach Joseph, the problem should be reported directly to the Facilities Expeditor at x5472.<br />
<br />
=== POWER OUTAGES ===<br />
<br />
See Davis Library Emergency Manual for emergency procedures. http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
When the main power to the building fails, a generator located in the basement under the staff room should automatically start and power portions of the building as follows:<br />
*Elevator #2 (near loading dock) will operate normally.<br />
*Elevators #1 and #3 will automatically go to level 1, will open and shut once, then will no longer operate. If the generator fails to operate all elevators stop.<br />
*Card access and alarm systems.<br />
*ITS machine/server room.<br />
*Circulation desk.<br />
*Some lighting (but not all lights) sufficient to illuminate pathways to exits.<br />
<br />
Compact shelving will not operate; loading dock overhead door will not operate; most outlets will not work; phone system will work as long as battery backup lasts; PA system will work as long as phone system works.<br />
<br />
If the generator fails to operate, the door locking system runs on battery and will only last a little while. If this happens ask Public Safety (x5911) to put the doors in card access mode to save the battery backup and also tell them we are propping the doors open. Retrieve concrete blocks from closet 201A and prop one exterior door and one interior door open.<br />
<br />
If the power comes back on right away but the generator has already started, then the generator will run for about a half hour before shutting down. If this happens some parts of the building may smell like exhaust because the exhaust for the generator is on the roof near the air intake for the HVAC system. (This isn't a problem if the power is out because the HVAC system is shut off.)<br />
<br />
When we lose electricity the fire doors on staircase #1-#4 will shut and should be reopened as needed when the power returns. Sometimes the crash bar alarms on the emergency exits will sound after the power comes back on and will need to be reset by either the LIS Facilities Coor. or Facilities Services. Some of the compact shelving may not operate properly after a power outage and will need to be reset by the LIS Facilities Coor., or the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor.<br />
<br />
=== WATER LEAKS/INCURSIONS ===<br />
<br />
==== Reporting a leak, how to: ====<br />
If the water leak is severe and causing damage to library collections or equipment, follow the procedures in the emergency manual here-- http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
'''When a water leak is noticed and it is minor and not causing damage''' to collections or equipment, report it to Joseph Watson x5487. If you don't reach Joseph, leave him a message about the leak and then contact Facilities Services directly at x5472. If FS is closed (evenings and weekends) call the Office of Public Safety and ask them to reach FS on-call personnel if deemed necessary. Describe the situation giving them all details as needed and realistically indicating the severity of the situation. If placing a basket under the leak until regular FS staff can come during normal working hours will suffice, please do so but inform PS so that they can have the night watch guard check on the leak.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Storm drain, exterior, overflow: ====<br />
<br />
During very heavy rains the storm drains that are just outside of the emergency exits at the bottom of staircases number 1 and 4 have been known to overflow. Instead of water going down them, water flows up and out of them like a geyser. This problem was severe enough to cause water to flow under the door at the bottom of staircase number 4 and flow into the lower level soaking the carpet adjacent to the Harman Reading Area as well as seeping under the wall into the reception area of Special Collections soaking the carpet there. This is a known issue as of the Summer of 2008.&nbsp; If we receive very heavy rains, it makes sense to check these areas to see if there is a problem and then report it as needed following the instructions in the "reporting a leak" section of this wiki.&nbsp; If water is flowing under the door, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR because the door might be holding back a quantity of water.<br></div>Joseph Watsonhttps://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/LIS/index.php?title=Facilities_Information;_Davis_Family_Library&diff=33426Facilities Information; Davis Family Library2015-08-25T16:11:51Z<p>Joseph Watson: /* Access: */</p>
<hr />
<div>=== GENERAL INFO ===<br />
The following is a partial overview of general building information that is shared with new LIS employees with offices in Davis Library. It is posted here as an overview/reminder for everyone. (Some information in the original email has been omitted for security purposes.)<br />
<br />
Because the library is not just a classroom and office building, but also stores some of the most valuable collections owned by the College, having an office here is unique and I'd like to call a few things to your attention.<br />
<br />
'''Emergency Preparedness'''<br />
<br />
All Middlebury College employees should become and stay familiar with the College-wide Emergency Response Procedures on the web at [http://www.middlebury.edu/er go/er] If Davis Library or Voter Hall are evacuated, the designated meeting area for staff is in front of Warner Hall. If Armstrong Library is evacuated the designated meeting area is on the hill next to Lang Dorm. If you work at a public service desk that deals with customers face to face, there may be additional emergency procedures that you should know about, so please ask your supervisor for an orientation to any department specific emergency manual.<br />
<br />
'''Access and Security'''<br />
<br />
-- You have (or shortly will have) card access to the exterior doors because you are a building "resident". That means that you can come and go whenever you want, including when the building is not open to the public. If you are in the building when it is not open to the public and you see any suspicious behavior, please call the Office of Public Safety (x5911) to let them know. You should never let anyone enter the building with you when it is not open to the public. Everyone who has good reason to be in the building when it is closed has been given card access.<br />
<br />
-- You are responsible for helping LIS maintain the security of the collections and therefore, even when the building is open to the public, please do not let people in or out through the back, Storrs Ave. doors unless they are physically unable to walk to the front door. Those without card access should exit the building through the front doors. While this is an inconvenience at times, it is important to maintain just one entrance and exit to the building for the sake of the security of the collections. If you allow someone you know to enter through the back doors with you as a favor, please remind them that they must exit through the front door. If you have a visitor and you would like to escort them to the back door as they leave, you are welcome to do so as long as they are not taking any library materials with them that they have not checked out.<br />
<br />
-- There is a toggle switch just above the doors as you exit the building. This switch controls the automatic door feature for handicapped access and should always be left in the "auto" position. If you would like a detailed, hands on explanation of this feature do not hesitate to ask me for one.<br />
<br />
-- Every now and then you might find that the interior doors do not unlock after you've used your access card. This is usually because somebody else has recently exited or entered and the doors had not reset when your card was read. If this happens, simply go back outside, wait a moment, then use your card again. It is impossible to get stuck between the two sets of doors because the exterior doors have a crash bar that can be used to open the doors even if they are locked.<br />
<br />
-- The emergency exit doors at the bottom of staircases #1 & #4 should not be used except in an emergency.<br />
<br />
-- The key to your office also opens common spaces like the staff room, loading dock, classrooms, and meeting rooms.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Office logistics'''<br />
<br />
-- If you want to keep library materials in your office, please help LIS maintain accurate collections information by taking a few moments to stop by the Circulation Desk to check them out.<br />
<br />
-- The use of heat-generating small appliances (like coffee makers, hot plates, etc.) in offices is discouraged because they can be a fire hazard. If you do use such appliances in your office they must have an automatic shut off feature. You are, of course, encouraged to use the Staff Room in LIB121 where you will find a well equipped kitchen.<br />
<br />
-- Of course the use of open flames (like candles or potpourri burners) is strictly prohibited.<br />
<br />
-- Please keep any food you have stored in your office in sealed containers. We have occasionally had a problem with mice in the building and you don't want mice feeding on that open dish of chocolate on top of your desk any more than we want those mice nesting in the books on the shelves.<br />
<br />
-- Those who have an office in the building have special privileges when it comes to reserving meeting rooms like LIB105, LIB145, LIB221. Please ask the LIS Administrative Assistant for more information.<br />
<br />
'''Stuff that comes and goes'''<br />
<br />
-- Mailboxes are in the Staff Room, LIB121. Outgoing mail may be left at the Info Desk or in the Staff Room.<br />
<br />
-- Those associated with CTLR generally send and receive faxes through that office at x2418. Those associated with LIS do so through Collection Management at x5698.<br />
<br />
-- Printing arrangements vary throughout the building so please ask your nearby neighbors what they do and don't hesitate to contact the Help Desk for assistance at x2200.<br />
<br />
-- Photocopiers are in the print/copy centers LIB142 and LBI242. Follow the directions attached to the machines to photocopy. See go/print for full information on how to print.<br />
<br />
-- The loading dock is a busy place. If you are notified that a package has arrived for you there, please collect the package as soon as conveniently possible.<br />
<br />
-- The Custodial Team routinely cleans offices on Wednesdays. Please refrain from putting fresh food garbage in your office trash because fresh food waste can attract insects and vermin. Instead, please deposit any such waste in the trash in either a bathroom or in the large bins in the central recycling areas. The Custodians do not routinely empty the small blue recycling bins or the trash bins in your office so you need to empty your own into the large bins in the central areas. Ask your new neighbor where the nearest ones are. Spare trash bags are kept in the supply closet LIB201A.<br />
<br />
Joseph Watson routinely coordinates LIS requests to Facilities Services for things in the building that need to be repaired. Please don't hesitate to ask questions or bring problems to his attention at any time.<br />
<br />
=== COMPACT SHELVING ===<br />
When shelving is malfunctioning please ask for assistance at the Circulation Desk. An override key can usually be used to open an aisle, but please use caution and make sure all aisles are empty before moving a carriage because the override key disables the safety features. If the override key doesn't work, a battery pack override may. The battery pack should always be kept fully charged because using a partially charged battery pack can damage the system.<br />
<br />
All problems should be reported to either the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor or the Facilities Coordinator. Signs will be posted to indicate that there's a known issue, so if there aren't signs posted in the problem area you should assume nobody knows that the shelving isn't working.<br />
<br />
Our compact shelving contractor is Donnegan Systems. If necessary, the Facilities Coordinator will place a service call. If he's unavailable, a service call to Donnegan may be placed at 1-800-222-6311.<br />
<br />
A manual for the compact shelving section L1-L35 can be found here: [[File:CompactShelveManual2009_eclipse.pdf]]<br />
<br />
A log of problems is kept [https://docs.google.com/a/middlebury.edu/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aq2wcICwqfc0dHdRaTFsdDdQNXEtMjNNXy1CdzQ3YlE here..]. please keep it updated.<br />
<br />
Please see this image for the numbering system for the compact shelving carriages.<br />

<br />
=== DOORS ===<br />
<br />
==== Access: ====<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the exterior front doors into the vestibule is 24/7 for anyone with a valid ID''' Students, Faculty, &amp; Staff have 24x7 access into the Vestibule. (Those with the following cards do not have ''access'' cards (but rather mag stripe only) and therefore cannot use card readers on campus. - Alumni, courtesy card, Friend of college, Spouse/Partner, Breadloaf, Faculty Emeriti, Retiree.)<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the interior front doors and back doors is:'''<br />
<br />
'''24/7 for:''' any staff or faculty member with an office in the building (including Faculty Offices LIB351-360); all Information Technology staff; Facilities Services “master” groups. Facilities Services Custodial access begins at 3am and for the rest of Facilities staff access begins at 6am. Access is occasionally given to Admissions tour guides during holiday weekends.<br />
<br />
'''When the building is open to the public for:''' Dining Services Supervisors; selected vendors making deliveries; faculty/staff who have assigned carrels in the building; anyone who qualifies for "handicapped access".<br />
<br />
'''Handicapped access:''' for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources.&nbsp; Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk.&nbsp; Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access.<br><br />
<br />
Non-ADA access to the back doors may be given at the discretion of the Dean of LIS.<br><br />
<br />
==== Door numbering:<br> ====<br />
<br />
The sets of doors are numbered.&nbsp; This can come in handy when reporting malfunctions to Facilities or Public Safety.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Davis_Lib_exterior_door_numbers_for_wiki.JPG|thumb|left]]<br /><br />
<br /><br />
<br />
==== Hold open feature on automatic doors: ====<br />
<br />
Each of the doors that are equipped with an automatic door opener for handicapped access has a small toggle switch over the interior side of the door. This switch has three positions, off, auto, hold open. '''The switch should be left in the "auto" position.''' If it is turned off the push button used to open the door will not work.<br />
<br />
The "hold open" position can be used to hold the door open. At the back doors use your access card then flip the switch to hold open and the door will open and stay that way until the switch is turned back to auto. At the front doors, press the button to open the doors and then flip the toggle switch.<br />
<br />
====Posting items on doors: ====<br />
Anything posted anywhere except bulletin boards should be removed and recycled. (Some semi-permanant signs for College Offices may be posted, but these should be laminated.) The college handbook states "Posters are permitted on designated bulletin boards or kiosks only. The organization or individual sponsoring an event or making an announcement is responsible for removing the material within 24 hours after the conclusion of the event or within 30 days of the posting, whichever occurs first. Please refrain from posting flyers on doors, walls, windows, buildings, lamp posts, trees or stairwells. Flyers found in these locations will be removed by College staff. Fines and/or disciplinary action may result from violations." (See the College Handbook Sec.8 pt.B)<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Keys: ====<br />
<br />
Keys are tracked and issued through the Dean of LIS's office. Requests for keys are made to the LIS Administrative Assistant. The request must come from the supervisor of the person that the key is being issued to.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
=== ELEVATORS AND STAIRWAYS ===<br />
The elevators and stairways are numbered so they can be referred to in an emergency or for general maintenance issues. Please see the image below for the numbering scheme. During a power outage Elevator #2 will continue to operate on generated power but if the generator stops running the elevator will stop where it is. During a power outage elevators #1 and #3 will go to the lower level, open once, then close and cease to operate.<br />

=== FALLING ICE OR SNOW, from roof over doors ===<br />
<br />
If dangerous snow or ice accumulates over a door, recruit a staff member to stand guard and alert people of the problem until signage is posted, then call Joseph x5487 and let him know about it. (Call your building coordinator if you're working at a branch library.)<br />
<br />
'''If you do not reach Joseph in person-- &nbsp;'''<br />
<br />
'''for front doors: '''There are large yellow plastic folding signs in the back of closet 201A that should be placed outside on the patio so that people approaching the building are alerted to the problem. There are also laminated 8.5"x11" signs in the wall pocket in 201A that should be taped to the glass on the inside of the exterior doors.&nbsp; Once this has been done, call Facilities Services x5472 (or, if FS is closed call public safety x5911) and alert them to the situation, letting them know that you've posted signage.<br />
<br />
'''for back door:''' use the portable directional signs that are stored in the loading dock and the staff room to post signs outside.&nbsp; Use the spare signs in 201A to post signs on the inside doors.&nbsp; If large icicles have formed over either door post a sign encouraging people to use the other exit.<br />
<br />
These procedures would also be appropriate for any immediate safety hazard that you become aware of. It is very important that any and all of us react to a hazard and keep ourselves, coworkers, and the public, safe from harm. Don't assume somebody else will notice and deal with it, please be proactive and follow up until you're sure that somebody is working to resolve the situation and you're not needed. There are "caution, wet floor" signs in the basement near the custodial supplies.<br><br />
<br />
There is a known issue with snow and ice falling from the roof over the front door. If the weather conditions are just right, the snow melts and compacts and then slides off under the snow guards and over the gutter. Another, but less common problem, is icicles forming in the scuppers over the back doors.<br />
<br />
=== MAINTENANCE REQUESTS ===<br />
Routine requests for Davis Library are funneled through the LIS Facilitates Coor., Joseph Watson. Things like broken locks, burned out light bulbs, plugged toilets, etc., should be reported to Joseph who will then place a request with Facilities Services. When Joseph is out of the office, Doreen Bernier the Asst. to the Dean of LIS can also place requests.<br />
Any problems that could be considered a safety hazard should be reported immediately, and if you don't reach Joseph, the problem should be reported directly to the Facilities Expeditor at x5472.<br />
<br />
=== POWER OUTAGES ===<br />
<br />
See Davis Library Emergency Manual for emergency procedures. http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
When the main power to the building fails, a generator located in the basement under the staff room should automatically start and power portions of the building as follows:<br />
*Elevator #2 (near loading dock) will operate normally.<br />
*Elevators #1 and #3 will automatically go to level 1, will open and shut once, then will no longer operate. If the generator fails to operate all elevators stop.<br />
*Card access and alarm systems.<br />
*ITS machine/server room.<br />
*Circulation desk.<br />
*Some lighting (but not all lights) sufficient to illuminate pathways to exits.<br />
<br />
Compact shelving will not operate; loading dock overhead door will not operate; most outlets will not work; phone system will work as long as battery backup lasts; PA system will work as long as phone system works.<br />
<br />
If the generator fails to operate, the door locking system runs on battery and will only last a little while. If this happens ask Public Safety (x5911) to put the doors in card access mode to save the battery backup and also tell them we are propping the doors open. Retrieve concrete blocks from closet 201A and prop one exterior door and one interior door open.<br />
<br />
If the power comes back on right away but the generator has already started, then the generator will run for about a half hour before shutting down. If this happens some parts of the building may smell like exhaust because the exhaust for the generator is on the roof near the air intake for the HVAC system. (This isn't a problem if the power is out because the HVAC system is shut off.)<br />
<br />
When we lose electricity the fire doors on staircase #1-#4 will shut and should be reopened as needed when the power returns. Sometimes the crash bar alarms on the emergency exits will sound after the power comes back on and will need to be reset by either the LIS Facilities Coor. or Facilities Services. Some of the compact shelving may not operate properly after a power outage and will need to be reset by the LIS Facilities Coor., or the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor.<br />
<br />
=== WATER LEAKS/INCURSIONS ===<br />
<br />
==== Reporting a leak, how to: ====<br />
If the water leak is severe and causing damage to library collections or equipment, follow the procedures in the emergency manual here-- http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
'''When a water leak is noticed and it is minor and not causing damage''' to collections or equipment, report it to Joseph Watson x5487. If you don't reach Joseph, leave him a message about the leak and then contact Facilities Services directly at x5472. If FS is closed (evenings and weekends) call the Office of Public Safety and ask them to reach FS on-call personnel if deemed necessary. Describe the situation giving them all details as needed and realistically indicating the severity of the situation. If placing a basket under the leak until regular FS staff can come during normal working hours will suffice, please do so but inform PS so that they can have the night watch guard check on the leak.<br />
<br />

<br><br />
<br />
==== Storm drain, exterior, overflow: ====<br />
<br />
During very heavy rains the storm drains that are just outside of the emergency exits at the bottom of staircases number 1 and 4 have been known to overflow. Instead of water going down them, water flows up and out of them like a geyser. This problem was severe enough to cause water to flow under the door at the bottom of staircase number 4 and flow into the lower level soaking the carpet adjacent to the Harman Reading Area as well as seeping under the wall into the reception area of Special Collections soaking the carpet there. This is a known issue as of the Summer of 2008.&nbsp; If we receive very heavy rains, it makes sense to check these areas to see if there is a problem and then report it as needed following the instructions in the "reporting a leak" section of this wiki.&nbsp; If water is flowing under the door, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR because the door might be holding back a quantity of water.<br></div>Joseph Watsonhttps://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/LIS/index.php?title=Work_and_Meeting_Spaces&diff=33352Work and Meeting Spaces2015-08-12T17:35:50Z<p>Joseph Watson: /* Rooms and room reservations&nbsp; */</p>

'''Emergency Exits'''<br />
<br />
Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />
<br />
Elevator #2 in the NE corner of the building is designed to operate on the emergency generator during a power failure.<br><br />
<br />
'''Retrieving Materials'''<br>Some users may not be able to reach all of the library shelves and some people may have trouble reading the call numbers on the spines of the books. Users may request assistance with book retrieval by contacting Circulation Services in person, by phone x5494, or email. <br>library_circulation@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
'''Equipment Available'''<br>Special equipment is available in LIB241, right around the corner from the print /copy center on the Main Level. There you’ll find a CCTV magnifying viewer and a computer workstation with a zoom text viewer and reader, as well as Dragon voice recognition software for English and Spanish. Ask for the “ADA computer” password at the Circulation Desk or Research Desk.<br />

<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

===== DAVIS FAMILY LIBRARY Displays =====<br />
<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. No material that could pose a safety hazard is allowed to be part of the display; barbed wire, glass, etc. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents. <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; kgurney@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Two identical units are available. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />

'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels to hold stiff posters (you provide the foam core or card board backing) up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90". It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is place on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Banner stand.JPG|thumb|none|Banner stand.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email kgurney@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />

<br />
The room should be used for training sessions where every individual needs a computer; meetings should not be scheduled in this room.<br />
<br />
If the room is not being used for a training session, it is open as a computer lab.<br />
<br />
''Guidelines for Library staff who wish to schedule the room:''<br />
<br />
For workshops that require specialized software in the Wilson Media Lab:<br />
#If the lab is not available then look for another space with the same software. Depending on the required software, the virtual desktop might be a solution.<br />
#If no alternatives are available, determine whether the workshop can be scheduled at another date/time. (Course-related workshops have less flexibility than open workshops.)<br />
#If the workshop cannot be scheduled at another date/time, contact the person who has booked the lab and ask if you can look for another space for them. If there are no alternatives, your request cannot be accommodated. Try for another date/time.<br />
<br />
For research workshops:<br />
#Consider: Can it be held in another space in the library? Especially when the workshop is more than one month away, try to use another room. Can it be held in the Armstrong Library (MBH161)? Most of these workshops are course-related; can your workshop be held in the regular course meeting space?<br />
#If you cannot use another room, schedule the workshop in the lab.<br />
<br />

=== ADA Access ===<br />
<br />
Library and Information Services strives to provide the best possible service to persons with disabilities. To request special accommodations not mentioned here, please contact the Middlebury College ADA office in Meeker House. 802-443-5936 (voice) ada@middlebury.edu&nbsp;&nbsp; 802-443-7437 (TTY) 802-443-2440 (fax) <br><br />
<br />
'''Entrance'''<br />
<br />
Users are encouraged to park in the designated spots on Old Chapel Road and enter the library through the front door. Special access to the Storrs Ave. doors for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources. Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk. Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access<br><br />
<br />
'''Emergency Exits'''<br />
<br />
Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />
<br />
Elevator #2 in the NE corner of the building is designed to operate on the emergency generator during a power failure.<br><br />
<br />
'''Retrieving Materials'''<br>Some users may not be able to reach all of the library shelves and some people may have trouble reading the call numbers on the spines of the books. Users may request assistance with book retrieval by contacting Circulation Services in person, by phone x5494, or email. <br>library_circulation@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
'''Equipment Available'''<br>Special equipment is available in LIB241, right around the corner from the print /copy center on the Main Level. There you’ll find a CCTV magnifying viewer and a computer workstation with a zoom text viewer and reader, as well as Dragon voice recognition software for English and Spanish. Ask for the “ADA computer” password at the Circulation Desk or Research Desk.<br />
<br />
=== Carrels<br> ===<br />
<br />
go/carrels<br />
<br />
Located throughout the library, 202 total.<br><br />
<br />
[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />
<br />
===== DAVIS FAMILY LIBRARY Displays =====<br />
<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. No material that could pose a safety hazard is allowed to be part of the display; barbed wire, glass, etc. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents. <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; kgurney@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Two identical units are available. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels to hold stiff posters (you provide the foam core or card board backing) up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90". It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is place on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Banner stand.JPG|thumb|none|Banner stand.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email kgurney@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />

For workshops that require specialized software in the Wilson Media Lab:<br />
#If the lab is not available then look for another space with the same software. Depending on the required software, the virtual desktop might be a solution.<br />
#If no alternatives are available, determine whether the workshop can be scheduled at another date/time. (Course-related workshops have less flexibility than open workshops.)<br />
#If the workshop cannot be scheduled at another date/time, contact the person who has booked the lab and ask if you can look for another space for them. If there are no alternatives, your request cannot be accommodated. Try for another date/time.<br />
<br />
For research workshops:<br />
#Consider: Can it be held in another space in the library? Especially when the workshop is more than one month away, try to use another room. Can it be held in the Armstrong Library (MBH161)? Most of these workshops are course-related; can your workshop be held in the regular course meeting space?<br />
#If you cannot use another room, schedule the workshop in the lab.<br />

<br />
Library and Information Services strives to provide the best possible service to persons with disabilities. To request special accommodations not mentioned here, please contact the Middlebury College ADA office in Meeker House. 802-443-5936 (voice) ada@middlebury.edu&nbsp;&nbsp; 802-443-7437 (TTY) 802-443-2440 (fax) <br><br />
<br />
'''Entrance'''<br />
<br />
Users are encouraged to park in the designated spots on Old Chapel Road and enter the library through the front door.

<br />
'''Emergency Exits'''<br />
<br />
Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />
<br />

Located throughout the library, 202 total.<br><br />
<br />
[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />
<br />
===== DAVIS FAMILY LIBRARY Displays =====<br />
<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. No material that could pose a safety hazard is allowed to be part of the display; barbed wire, glass, etc. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents. <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; kgurney@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Two identical units are available. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels to hold stiff posters (you provide the foam core or card board backing) up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90". It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is place on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Banner stand.JPG|thumb|none|Banner stand.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email kgurney@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />

The Wilson Media Lab is dedicated primarily to the support and development of media projects. Digital Media Tutors and other Academic Technology staff in the lab can help researchers with any form of media, whether for a group project or a class presentation. Regular training sessions are open to all. Faculty members may get help with a class web page or with incorporating multimedia into course design or research.<br />
<br />
The room is also used for research workshops. Non-library staff and faculty may reserve the room, no earlier than 7 days in advance, by contacting Doreen Bernier (dbernier@middlebury.edu or x5595).<br />
<br />
The room should be used for training sessions where every individual needs a computer; meetings should not be scheduled in this room.<br />
<br />
If the room is not being used for a training session, it is open as a computer lab.<br />
<br />
''Guidelines for Library staff who wish to schedule the room:''<br />
<br />
For workshops that require specialized software in the Wilson Media Lab:<br />
#If the lab is not available then look for another space with the same software. Depending on the required software, the virtual desktop might be a solution.<br />
#If no alternatives are available, determine whether the workshop can be scheduled at another date/time. (Course-related workshops have less flexibility than open workshops.)<br />
#If the workshop cannot be scheduled at another date/time, contact the person who has booked the lab and ask if you can look for another space for them. If there are no alternatives, your request cannot be accommodated. Try for another date/time.<br />
<br />
For research workshops:<br />
#Consider: Can it be held in another space in the library? Especially when the workshop is more than one month away, try to use another room. Can it be held in the Armstrong Library (MBH161)? Most of these workshops are course-related; can your workshop be held in the regular course meeting space?<br />
#If you cannot use another room, schedule the workshop in the lab.<br />
<br />
Other spaces to consider for workshops (check for yourself before you book!):<br />

*''LIB140, MBH116/117 and SDL 122 are scheduled by the Scheduling Office. CTLR spaces are scheduled by JoAnn Brewer. MBH161 is scheduled by Armstrong staff and librarians. Most of the other library rooms in the list are in Outlook and I believe that Library and ITS staff should be able to book them directly.<br />

<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents. <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; kgurney@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Two identical units are available. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels to hold stiff posters (you provide the foam core or card board backing) up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90". It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is place on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Banner stand.JPG|thumb|none|Banner stand.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email kgurney@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />

=== Wilson Media Development Lab <br> ===<br />
<br />
LIB 220 (Davis Family Library Main Level)<br />
Capacity = 15<br />
<br />
The Wilson Media Lab is dedicated primarily to the support and development of media projects. Digital Media Tutors and other Academic Technology staff in the lab can help researchers with any form of media, whether for a group project or a class presentation. Regular training sessions are open to all. Faculty members may get help with a class web page or with incorporating multimedia into course design or research.<br />
<br />
The room is also used for research workshops. Non-library staff and faculty may reserve the room, no earlier than 7 days in advance, by contacting Doreen Bernier (dbernier@middlebury.edu or x5595).<br />
<br />
The room should be used for training sessions where every individual needs a computer; meetings should not be scheduled in this room.<br />
<br />
If the room is not being used for a training session, it is open as a computer lab.<br />
<br />
''Guidelines for Library staff who wish to schedule the room:''<br />
<br />
For workshops that require specialized software in the Wilson Media Lab:<br />
#If the lab is not available then look for another space with the same software. Depending on the required software, the virtual desktop might be a solution.<br />
#If no alternatives are available, determine whether the workshop can be scheduled at another date/time. (Course-related workshops have less flexibility than open workshops.)<br />
#If the workshop cannot be scheduled at another date/time, contact the person who has booked the lab and ask if you can look for another space for them. If there are no alternatives, your request cannot be accommodated. Try for another date/time.<br />
<br />
For research workshops:<br />
#Consider: Can it be held in another space in the library? Especially when the workshop is more than one month away, try to use another room. Can it be held in the Armstrong Library (MBH161)? Most of these workshops are course-related; can your workshop be held in the regular course meeting space?<br />
#If you cannot use another room, schedule the workshop in the lab.<br />
<br />

<hr />
<div>=== GENERAL INFO ===<br />
The following is a partial overview of general building information that is shared with new LIS employees with offices in Davis Library. It is posted here as an overview/reminder for everyone. (Some information in the original email has been omitted for security purposes.)<br />
<br />
Because the library is not just a classroom and office building, but also stores some of the most valuable collections owned by the College, having an office here is unique and I'd like to call a few things to your attention.<br />
<br />
'''Emergency Preparedness'''<br />
<br />
All Middlebury College employees should become and stay familiar with the College-wide Emergency Response Procedures on the web at [http://www.middlebury.edu/er go/er] If Davis Library or Voter Hall are evacuated, the designated meeting area for staff is in front of Warner Hall. If Armstrong Library is evacuated the designated meeting area is on the hill next to Lang Dorm. If you work at a public service desk that deals with customers face to face, there may be additional emergency procedures that you should know about, so please ask your supervisor for an orientation to any department specific emergency manual.<br />
<br />
'''Access and Security'''<br />
<br />
-- You have (or shortly will have) card access to the exterior doors because you are a building "resident". That means that you can come and go whenever you want, including when the building is not open to the public. If you are in the building when it is not open to the public and you see any suspicious behavior, please call the Office of Public Safety (x5911) to let them know. You should never let anyone enter the building with you when it is not open to the public. Everyone who has good reason to be in the building when it is closed has been given card access.<br />
<br />
-- You are responsible for helping LIS maintain the security of the collections and therefore, even when the building is open to the public, please do not let people in or out through the back, Storrs Ave. doors unless they are physically unable to walk to the front door. Those without card access should exit the building through the front doors. While this is an inconvenience at times, it is important to maintain just one entrance and exit to the building for the sake of the security of the collections. If you allow someone you know to enter through the back doors with you as a favor, please remind them that they must exit through the front door. If you have a visitor and you would like to escort them to the back door as they leave, you are welcome to do so as long as they are not taking any library materials with them that they have not checked out.<br />
<br />
-- There is a toggle switch just above the doors as you exit the building. This switch controls the automatic door feature for handicapped access and should always be left in the "auto" position. If you would like a detailed, hands on explanation of this feature do not hesitate to ask me for one.<br />
<br />
-- Every now and then you might find that the interior doors do not unlock after you've used your access card. This is usually because somebody else has recently exited or entered and the doors had not reset when your card was read. If this happens, simply go back outside, wait a moment, then use your card again. It is impossible to get stuck between the two sets of doors because the exterior doors have a crash bar that can be used to open the doors even if they are locked.<br />
<br />
-- The emergency exit doors at the bottom of staircases #1 & #4 should not be used except in an emergency.<br />
<br />
-- The key to your office also opens common spaces like the staff room, loading dock, classrooms, and meeting rooms.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Office logistics'''<br />
<br />
-- If you want to keep library materials in your office, please help LIS maintain accurate collections information by taking a few moments to stop by the Circulation Desk to check them out.<br />
<br />
-- The use of heat-generating small appliances (like coffee makers, hot plates, etc.) in offices is discouraged because they can be a fire hazard. If you do use such appliances in your office they must have an automatic shut off feature. You are, of course, encouraged to use the Staff Room in LIB121 where you will find a well equipped kitchen.<br />
<br />
-- Of course the use of open flames (like candles or potpourri burners) is strictly prohibited.<br />
<br />
-- Please keep any food you have stored in your office in sealed containers. We have occasionally had a problem with mice in the building and you don't want mice feeding on that open dish of chocolate on top of your desk any more than we want those mice nesting in the books on the shelves.<br />
<br />
-- Those who have an office in the building have special privileges when it comes to reserving meeting rooms like LIB105, LIB145, LIB221. Please ask the LIS Administrative Assistant for more information.<br />
<br />
'''Stuff that comes and goes'''<br />
<br />
-- Mailboxes are in the Staff Room, LIB121. Outgoing mail may be left at the Info Desk or in the Staff Room.<br />
<br />
-- Those associated with CTLR generally send and receive faxes through that office at x2418. Those associated with LIS do so through Collection Management at x5698.<br />
<br />
-- Printing arrangements vary throughout the building so please ask your nearby neighbors what they do and don't hesitate to contact the Help Desk for assistance at x2200.<br />
<br />
-- Photocopiers are in the print/copy centers LIB142 and LBI242. Follow the directions attached to the machines to photocopy. See go/print for full information on how to print.<br />
<br />
-- The loading dock is a busy place. If you are notified that a package has arrived for you there, please collect the package as soon as conveniently possible.<br />
<br />
-- The Custodial Team routinely cleans offices on Wednesdays. Please refrain from putting fresh food garbage in your office trash because fresh food waste can attract insects and vermin. Instead, please deposit any such waste in the trash in either a bathroom or in the large bins in the central recycling areas. The Custodians do not routinely empty the small blue recycling bins or the trash bins in your office so you need to empty your own into the large bins in the central areas. Ask your new neighbor where the nearest ones are. Spare trash bags are kept in the supply closet LIB201A.<br />
<br />
Joseph Watson routinely coordinates LIS requests to Facilities Services for things in the building that need to be repaired. Please don't hesitate to ask questions or bring problems to his attention at any time.<br />
<br />
=== COMPACT SHELVING ===<br />
When shelving is malfunctioning please ask for assistance at the Circulation Desk. An override key can usually be used to open an aisle, but please use caution and make sure all aisles are empty before moving a carriage because the override key disables the safety features. If the override key doesn't work, a battery pack override may. The battery pack should always be kept fully charged because using a partially charged battery pack can damage the system.<br />
<br />
All problems should be reported to either the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor or the Facilities Coordinator. Signs will be posted to indicate that there's a known issue, so if there aren't signs posted in the problem area you should assume nobody knows that the shelving isn't working.<br />
<br />
Our compact shelving contractor is Donnegan Systems. If necessary, the Facilities Coordinator will place a service call. If he's unavailable, a service call to Donnegan may be placed at 1-800-222-6311.<br />
<br />
A manual for the compact shelving section L1-L35 can be found here: [[File:CompactShelveManual2009_eclipse.pdf]]<br />
<br />
A log of problems is kept [https://docs.google.com/a/middlebury.edu/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aq2wcICwqfc0dHdRaTFsdDdQNXEtMjNNXy1CdzQ3YlE here..]. please keep it updated.<br />
<br />
Please see this image for the numbering system for the compact shelving carriages.<br />

Facilities Services Custodial access begins at 3am and for the rest of Facilities staff access begins at 6am. Access is occasionally given to Admissions tour guides during holiday weekends.<br />
<br />
'''When the building is open to the public for:''' Dining Services Supervisors; selected vendors making deliveries; faculty/staff who have assigned carrels in the building; anyone who qualifies for "handicapped access".<br />
<br />
'''Handicapped access:''' for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources.&nbsp; Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk.&nbsp; Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access.<br><br />
<br />
Non-ADA access to the back doors may be given at the discretion of the Dean of LIS.<br><br />
<br />
==== Door numbering:<br> ====<br />
<br />
The sets of doors are numbered.&nbsp; This can come in handy when reporting malfunctions to Facilities or Public Safety.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Davis_Lib_exterior_door_numbers_for_wiki.JPG|thumb|left]]<br /><br />
<br /><br />
<br />
==== Hold open feature on automatic doors: ====<br />
<br />
Each of the doors that are equipped with an automatic door opener for handicapped access has a small toggle switch over the interior side of the door. This switch has three positions, off, auto, hold open. '''The switch should be left in the "auto" position.''' If it is turned off the push button used to open the door will not work.<br />
<br />
The "hold open" position can be used to hold the door open. At the back doors use your access card then flip the switch to hold open and the door will open and stay that way until the switch is turned back to auto. At the front doors, press the button to open the doors and then flip the toggle switch.<br />
<br />
====Posting items on doors: ====<br />
Anything posted anywhere except bulletin boards should be removed and recycled. (Some semi-permanant signs for College Offices may be posted, but these should be laminated.) The college handbook states "Posters are permitted on designated bulletin boards or kiosks only. The organization or individual sponsoring an event or making an announcement is responsible for removing the material within 24 hours after the conclusion of the event or within 30 days of the posting, whichever occurs first. Please refrain from posting flyers on doors, walls, windows, buildings, lamp posts, trees or stairwells. Flyers found in these locations will be removed by College staff. Fines and/or disciplinary action may result from violations." (See the College Handbook Sec.8 pt.B)<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Keys: ====<br />
<br />
Keys are tracked and issued through the Dean of LIS's office. Requests for keys are made to the LIS Administrative Assistant. The request must come from the supervisor of the person that the key is being issued to.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
=== ELEVATORS AND STAIRWAYS ===<br />
The elevators and stairways are numbered so they can be referred to in an emergency or for general maintenance issues. Please see the image below for the numbering scheme. During a power outage Elevator #2 will continue to operate on generated power but if the generator stops running the elevator will stop where it is. During a power outage elevators #1 and #3 will go to the lower level, open once, then close and cease to operate.<br />

=== FALLING ICE OR SNOW, from roof over doors ===<br />
<br />
If dangerous snow or ice accumulates over a door, recruit a staff member to stand guard and alert people of the problem until signage is posted, then call Joseph x5487 and let him know about it. (Call your building coordinator if you're working at a branch library.)<br />
<br />
'''If you do not reach Joseph in person-- &nbsp;'''<br />
<br />
'''for front doors: '''There are large yellow plastic folding signs in the back of closet 201A that should be placed outside on the patio so that people approaching the building are alerted to the problem. There are also laminated 8.5"x11" signs in the wall pocket in 201A that should be taped to the glass on the inside of the exterior doors.&nbsp; Once this has been done, call Facilities Services x5472 (or, if FS is closed call public safety x5911) and alert them to the situation, letting them know that you've posted signage.<br />
<br />
'''for back door:''' use the portable directional signs that are stored in the loading dock and the staff room to post signs outside.&nbsp; Use the spare signs in 201A to post signs on the inside doors.&nbsp; If large icicles have formed over either door post a sign encouraging people to use the other exit.<br />
<br />
These procedures would also be appropriate for any immediate safety hazard that you become aware of. It is very important that any and all of us react to a hazard and keep ourselves, coworkers, and the public, safe from harm. Don't assume somebody else will notice and deal with it, please be proactive and follow up until you're sure that somebody is working to resolve the situation and you're not needed. There are "caution, wet floor" signs in the basement near the custodial supplies.<br><br />
<br />
There is a known issue with snow and ice falling from the roof over the front door. If the weather conditions are just right, the snow melts and compacts and then slides off under the snow guards and over the gutter. Another, but less common problem, is icicles forming in the scuppers over the back doors.<br />
<br />
=== MAINTENANCE REQUESTS ===<br />
Routine requests for Davis Library are funneled through the LIS Facilitates Coor., Joseph Watson. Things like broken locks, burned out light bulbs, plugged toilets, etc., should be reported to Joseph who will then place a request with Facilities Services. When Joseph is out of the office, Doreen Bernier the Asst. to the Dean of LIS can also place requests.<br />
Any problems that could be considered a safety hazard should be reported immediately, and if you don't reach Joseph, the problem should be reported directly to the Facilities Expeditor at x5472.<br />
<br />
=== POWER OUTAGES ===<br />
<br />
See Davis Library Emergency Manual for emergency procedures. http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
When the main power to the building fails, a generator located in the basement under the staff room should automatically start and power portions of the building as follows:<br />
*Elevator #2 (near loading dock) will operate normally.<br />
*Elevators #1 and #3 will automatically go to level 1, will open and shut once, then will no longer operate. If the generator fails to operate all elevators stop.<br />
*Card access and alarm systems.<br />
*ITS machine/server room.<br />
*Circulation desk.<br />
*Some lighting (but not all lights) sufficient to illuminate pathways to exits.<br />
<br />
Compact shelving will not operate; loading dock overhead door will not operate; most outlets will not work; phone system will work as long as battery backup lasts; PA system will work as long as phone system works.<br />
<br />
If the generator fails to operate, the door locking system runs on battery and will only last a little while. If this happens ask Public Safety (x5911) to put the doors in card access mode to save the battery backup and also tell them we are propping the doors open. Retrieve concrete blocks from closet 201A and prop one exterior door and one interior door open.<br />
<br />
If the power comes back on right away but the generator has already started, then the generator will run for about a half hour before shutting down. If this happens some parts of the building may smell like exhaust because the exhaust for the generator is on the roof near the air intake for the HVAC system. (This isn't a problem if the power is out because the HVAC system is shut off.)<br />
<br />
When we lose electricity the fire doors on staircase #1-#4 will shut and should be reopened as needed when the power returns. Sometimes the crash bar alarms on the emergency exits will sound after the power comes back on and will need to be reset by either the LIS Facilities Coor. or Facilities Services. Some of the compact shelving may not operate properly after a power outage and will need to be reset by the LIS Facilities Coor., or the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor.<br />
<br />
=== WATER LEAKS/INCURSIONS ===<br />
<br />
==== Reporting a leak, how to: ====<br />
If the water leak is severe and causing damage to library collections or equipment, follow the procedures in the emergency manual here-- http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
'''When a water leak is noticed and it is minor and not causing damage''' to collections or equipment, report it to Joseph Watson x5487. If you don't reach Joseph, leave him a message about the leak and then contact Facilities Services directly at x5472. If FS is closed (evenings and weekends) call the Office of Public Safety and ask them to reach FS on-call personnel if deemed necessary. Describe the situation giving them all details as needed and realistically indicating the severity of the situation. If placing a basket under the leak until regular FS staff can come during normal working hours will suffice, please do so but inform PS so that they can have the night watch guard check on the leak.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Storm drain, exterior, overflow: ====<br />
<br />
During very heavy rains the storm drains that are just outside of the emergency exits at the bottom of staircases number 1 and 4 have been known to overflow. Instead of water going down them, water flows up and out of them like a geyser. This problem was severe enough to cause water to flow under the door at the bottom of staircase number 4 and flow into the lower level soaking the carpet adjacent to the Harman Reading Area as well as seeping under the wall into the reception area of Special Collections soaking the carpet there. This is a known issue as of the Summer of 2008.&nbsp; If we receive very heavy rains, it makes sense to check these areas to see if there is a problem and then report it as needed following the instructions in the "reporting a leak" section of this wiki.&nbsp; If water is flowing under the door, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR because the door might be holding back a quantity of water.<br></div>Joseph Watsonhttps://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/LIS/index.php?title=Work_and_Meeting_Spaces&diff=31953Work and Meeting Spaces2015-01-30T16:10:23Z<p>Joseph Watson: /* DAVIS FAMILY LIBRARY Displays */</p>

=== ADA Access ===<br />
<br />
Library and Information Services strives to provide the best possible service to persons with disabilities. To request special accommodations not mentioned here, please contact the Middlebury College ADA office in Meeker House. 802-443-5936 (voice) ada@middlebury.edu&nbsp;&nbsp; 802-443-7437 (TTY) 802-443-2440 (fax) <br><br />
<br />
'''Entrance'''<br />
<br />
Users are encouraged to park in the designated spots on Old Chapel Road and enter the library through the front door. Special access to the Storrs Ave. doors for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources. Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk. Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access<br><br />
<br />
'''Emergency Exits'''<br />
<br />
Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />
<br />
Elevator #2 in the NE corner of the building is designed to operate on the emergency generator during a power failure.<br><br />
<br />
'''Retrieving Materials'''<br>Some users may not be able to reach all of the library shelves and some people may have trouble reading the call numbers on the spines of the books. Users may request assistance with book retrieval by contacting Circulation Services in person, by phone x5494, or email. <br>library_circulation@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
'''Equipment Available'''<br>Special equipment is available in LIB241, right around the corner from the print /copy center on the Main Level. There you’ll find a CCTV magnifying viewer and a computer workstation with a zoom text viewer and reader, as well as Dragon voice recognition software for English and Spanish. Ask for the “ADA computer” password at the Circulation Desk or Research Desk.<br />
<br />
=== Carrels<br> ===<br />
<br />
go/carrels<br />
<br />
Located throughout the library, 202 total.<br><br />
<br />
[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />
<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents. <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; kgurney@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Two identical units are available. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90". It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is place on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Banner stand.JPG|thumb|none|Banner stand.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email kgurney@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />

These collections offer a variety of rare, unique and primary-source materials to support the College curriculum. Special Collections offers a climate-controlled environment in which rare, fragile, and/or valuable materials are housed in closed stacks (with the exception of circulating portions of the Vermont Collection located adjacent to Special Collections on the Davis Family Library Lower Level). Materials are retrieved by staff for researchers' use in the Reading Room. For complete information on Special Collections please see the web page at '''go/sc''' or http://www.middlebury.edu/academics/lib/libcollections/collections/special<br />

<br />
=== Wilson Media Development Lab <br> ===<br />
<br />
LIB 220 (Davis Family Library Main Level)<br />
Capacity = 15<br />
<br />
The Wilson Media Lab is dedicated primarily to the support and development of media projects. Digital Media Tutors and other Academic Technology staff in the lab can help researchers with any form of media, whether for a group project or a class presentation. Regular training sessions are open to all. Faculty members may get help with a class web page or with incorporating multimedia into course design or research.<br />
<br />
The room is also used for research workshops. Non-library staff and faculty may reserve the room, no earlier than 7 days in advance, by contacting Doreen Bernier (dbernier@middlebury.edu or x5595). The room should be used for training sessions where every individual needs a computer; meetings should not be scheduled in this room.<br />
<br />
If the room is not being used for a training session, it is open as a computer lab.<br />
<br />
''Guidelines for Library staff who wish to schedule the room:''<br />
<br />
For workshops that require specialized software in the Wilson Media Lab:<br />
#If the lab is not available then look for another space with the same software.<br />
#If no alternatives are available, determine whether the workshop can be scheduled at another date/time. (Course-related workshops have less flexibility than open workshops.)<br />
#If the workshop cannot be scheduled at another date/time, contact the person who has booked the lab and ask if you can look for another space for them. If there are no alternatives, your request cannot be accommodated. Try for another date/time.<br />
<br />
For research workshops:<br />
#Consider: Can it be held in another space in the library? Especially when the workshop is more than one month away, try to use another room. Can it be held in the Armstrong Library (MBH161)? Most of these workshops are course-related; can your workshop be held in the regular course meeting space?<br />
#If you cannot use another room, schedule the workshop in the lab.<br />
<br />
Other spaces to consider for workshops (check for yourself before you book!):<br />
*LIB140<br />
*LIB145<br />
*LIB221<br />
*LIB116 (no projection)<br />
*LIB131 (no projection)<br />

*MBH116/117<br />
*SDL122<br />
*and more [http://www.middlebury.edu/offices/technology/help/technology/equipment/computers here in this list of public computers]<br />
*''LIB140, MBH116/117 and SDL 122 are scheduled by the Scheduling Office. CTLR spaces are scheduled by JoAnn Brewer. MBH161 is scheduled by Armstrong staff and librarians. Most of the other library rooms in the list are in Outlook and I believe that Library and ITS staff should be able to book them directly.<br />

<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents. <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; kgurney@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Two identical units are available. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90". It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is place on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Banner stand.JPG|thumb|none|Banner stand.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Circulation Services Specialist Kimberly Gurney via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? kgurney@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator.

=== Wilson Media Development Lab <br> ===<br />
<br />
LIB 220 (Davis Family Library Main Level)<br />
Capacity = 15<br />
<br />
The Wilson Media Lab is dedicated primarily to the support and development of media projects. Digital Media Tutors and other Academic Technology staff in the lab can help researchers with any form of media, whether for a group project or a class presentation. Regular training sessions are open to all. Faculty members may get help with a class web page or with incorporating multimedia into course design or research.<br />
<br />
The room is also used for research workshops. Non-library staff and faculty may reserve the room, no earlier than 7 days in advance, by contacting Doreen Bernier (dbernier@middlebury.edu or x5595). The room should be used for training sessions where every individual needs a computer; meetings should not be scheduled in this room.<br />
<br />
If the room is not being used for a training session, it is open as a computer lab.<br />
<br />
''Guidelines for Library staff who wish to schedule the room:''<br />
<br />
For workshops that require specialized software in the Wilson Media Lab:<br />
#If the lab is not available then look for another space with the same software.<br />
#If no alternatives are available, determine whether the workshop can be scheduled at another date/time. (Course-related workshops have less flexibility than open workshops.)<br />
#If the workshop cannot be scheduled at another date/time, contact the person who has booked the lab and ask if you can look for another space for them. If there are no alternatives, your request cannot be accommodated. Try for another date/time.<br />
<br />
For research workshops:<br />
#Consider: Can it be held in another space in the library? Especially when the workshop is more than one month away, try to use another room. Can it be held in the Armstrong Library (MBH161)? Most of these workshops are course-related; can your workshop be held in the regular course meeting space?<br />
#If you cannot use another room, schedule the workshop in the lab.<br />
<br />
Other spaces to consider for workshops (check for yourself before you book!):<br />

*''LIB140, MBH116/117 and SDL 122 are scheduled by the Scheduling Office. CTLR spaces are scheduled by JoAnn Brewer. MBH161 is scheduled by Armstrong staff and librarians. Most of the other library rooms in the list are in Outlook and I believe that Library and ITS staff should be able to book them directly.<br />

<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />

Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents. <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />

'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />

<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />
'''The following staff members are available to help you prepare and install your display:'''<br />

The Wilson Media Lab is dedicated primarily to the support and development of media projects. Digital Media Tutors and other Academic Technology staff in the lab can help researchers with any form of media, whether for a group project or a class presentation. Regular training sessions are open to all. Faculty members may get help with a class web page or with incorporating multimedia into course design or research.<br />
<br />
The room is also used for research workshops. Non-library staff and faculty may reserve the room, no earlier than 7 days in advance, by contacting Doreen Bernier (dbernier@middlebury.edu or x5595). The room should be used for training sessions where every individual needs a computer; meetings should not be scheduled in this room.<br />
<br />
If the room is not being used for a training session, it is open as a computer lab.<br />
<br />
''Guidelines for Library staff who wish to schedule the room:''<br />
<br />
For workshops that require specialized software in the Wilson Media Lab:<br />
#If the lab is not available then look for another space with the same software.<br />
#If no alternatives are available, determine whether the workshop can be scheduled at another date/time. (Course-related workshops have less flexibility than open workshops.)<br />
#If the workshop cannot be scheduled at another date/time, contact the person who has booked the lab and ask if you can look for another space for them. If there are no alternatives, your request cannot be accommodated. Try for another date/time.<br />
<br />
For research workshops:<br />
#Consider: Can it be held in another space in the library? Especially when the workshop is more than one month away, try to use another room. Can it be held in the Armstrong Library (MBH161)? Most of these workshops are course-related; can your workshop be held in the regular course meeting space?<br />
#If you cannot use another room, schedule the workshop in the lab.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents. <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Two identical units are available. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90". It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is place on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Banner stand.JPG|thumb|none|Banner stand.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />
'''The following staff members are available to help you prepare and install your display:'''<br />

<br />
LIB 220 (Davis Family Library Main Level)<br />
Capacity = 15<br />
<br />
The Wilson Media Lab is dedicated primarily to the support and development of media projects. Digital Media Tutors and other Academic Technology staff in the lab can help researchers with any form of media, whether for a group project or a class presentation. Regular training sessions are open to all. Faculty members may get help with a class web page or with incorporating multimedia into course design or research.<br />
<br />
The room is also used for research workshops. Non-library staff and faculty may reserve the room, no earlier than 7 days in advance, by contacting Doreen Bernier (dbernier@middlebury.edu or x5595). The room should be used for training sessions where every individual needs a computer; meetings should not be scheduled in this room.<br />
<br />
If the room is not being used for a training session, it is open as a computer lab.<br />
<br />
''Guidelines for Library staff who wish to schedule the room:''<br />
<br />
For workshops that require specialized software in the Wilson Media Lab:<br />
#If the lab is not available then look for another space with the same software.<br />
#If no alternatives are available, determine whether the workshop can be scheduled at another date/time. (Course-related workshops have less flexibility than open workshops.)<br />
#If the workshop cannot be scheduled at another date/time, contact the person who has booked the lab and ask if you can look for another space for them. If there are no alternatives, your request cannot be accommodated. Try for another date/time.<br />
<br />
For research workshops:<br />
#Consider: Can it be held in another space in the library? Especially when the workshop is more than one month away, try to use another room. Can it be held in the Armstrong Library (MBH161)? Most of these workshops are course-related; can your workshop be held in the regular course meeting space?<br />
#If you cannot use another room, schedule the workshop in the lab.<br />
<br />
Other spaces to consider for workshops (check for yourself before you book!):<br />

Library and Information Services strives to provide the best possible service to persons with disabilities. To request special accommodations not mentioned here, please contact the Middlebury College ADA office in Meeker House. 802-443-5936 (voice) ada@middlebury.edu&nbsp;&nbsp; 802-443-7437 (TTY) 802-443-2440 (fax) <br><br />
<br />
'''Entrance'''<br />
<br />
Users are encouraged to park in the designated spots on Old Chapel Road and enter the library through the front door. Special access to the Storrs Ave. doors for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources. Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk. Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access<br><br />
<br />
'''Emergency Exits'''<br />
<br />
Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />
<br />
Elevator #2 in the NE corner of the building is designed to operate on the emergency generator during a power failure.<br><br />
<br />
'''Retrieving Materials'''<br>Some users may not be able to reach all of the library shelves and some people may have trouble reading the call numbers on the spines of the books. Users may request assistance with book retrieval by contacting Circulation Services in person, by phone x5494, or email. <br>library_circulation@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
'''Equipment Available'''<br>Special equipment is available in LIB241, right around the corner from the print /copy center on the Main Level. There you’ll find a CCTV magnifying viewer and a computer workstation with a zoom text viewer and reader, as well as Dragon voice recognition software for English and Spanish. Ask for the “ADA computer” password at the Circulation Desk or Research Desk.<br />
<br />
=== Carrels<br> ===<br />
<br />
go/carrels<br />
<br />
Located throughout the library, 202 total.<br><br />
<br />
[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Two identical units are available. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90". It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is place on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Banner stand.JPG|thumb|none|Banner stand.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />

<br />
Library and Information Services strives to provide the best possible service to persons with disabilities. To request special accommodations not mentioned here, please contact the Middlebury College ADA office in Meeker House. 802-443-5936 (voice) ada@middlebury.edu&nbsp;&nbsp; 802-443-7437 (TTY) 802-443-2440 (fax) <br><br />
<br />
'''Entrance'''<br />
<br />
Users are encouraged to park in the designated spots on Old Chapel Road and enter the library through the front door. Special access to the Storrs Ave. doors for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources. Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk. Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access<br><br />
<br />
'''Emergency Exits'''<br />
<br />
Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />
<br />
Elevator #2 in the NE corner of the building is designed to operate on the emergency generator during a power failure.<br><br />
<br />
'''Retrieving Materials'''<br>Some users may not be able to reach all of the library shelves and some people may have trouble reading the call numbers on the spines of the books. Users may request assistance with book retrieval by contacting Circulation Services in person, by phone x5494, or email. <br>library_circulation@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
'''Equipment Available'''<br>Special equipment is available in LIB241, right around the corner from the print /copy center on the Main Level. There you’ll find a CCTV magnifying viewer and a computer workstation with a zoom text viewer and reader, as well as Dragon voice recognition software for English and Spanish. Ask for the “ADA computer” password at the Circulation Desk or Research Desk.<br />
<br />
=== Carrels<br> ===<br />
<br />
go/carrels<br />
<br />
Located throughout the library, 202 total.<br><br />
<br />
[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />
<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Two identical units are available. Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90". It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is place on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Banner stand.JPG|thumb|none|Banner stand.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />

=== ADA Access ===<br />
<br />
Library and Information Services strives to provide the best possible service to persons with disabilities. To request special accommodations not mentioned here, please contact the Middlebury College ADA office in Meeker House. 802-443-5936 (voice) ada@middlebury.edu&nbsp;&nbsp; 802-443-7437 (TTY) 802-443-2440 (fax) <br><br />
<br />
'''Entrance'''<br />
<br />
Users are encouraged to park in the designated spots on Old Chapel Road and enter the library through the front door. Special access to the Storrs Ave. doors for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources. Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk. Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access<br><br />
<br />
'''Emergency Exits'''<br />
<br />
Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />
<br />
Elevator #2 in the NE corner of the building is designed to operate on the emergency generator during a power failure.<br><br />
<br />
'''Retrieving Materials'''<br>Some users may not be able to reach all of the library shelves and some people may have trouble reading the call numbers on the spines of the books. Users may request assistance with book retrieval by contacting Circulation Services in person, by phone x5494, or email. <br>library_circulation@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
'''Equipment Available'''<br>Special equipment is available in LIB241, right around the corner from the print /copy center on the Main Level. There you’ll find a CCTV magnifying viewer and a computer workstation with a zoom text viewer and reader, as well as Dragon voice recognition software for English and Spanish. Ask for the “ADA computer” password at the Circulation Desk or Research Desk.<br />
<br />
=== Carrels<br> ===<br />
<br />
go/carrels<br />
<br />
Located throughout the library, 202 total.<br><br />
<br />
[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />
<br />
===== DAVIS FAMILY LIBRARY Displays =====<br />
<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Two units available. Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation,<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90". It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is place on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />

Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />

Located throughout the library, 202 total.<br><br />
<br />
[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />
<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Two units available. Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation, <br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br />
and e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90". It can be either one or two-sided, but best when content is place on both sides so people can see it coming from either direction.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />

Located throughout the library, 202 total.<br><br />
<br />
[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by Davis Library and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display should be designed with two sides even if the content is the same on both sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Two units available. Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation, e) freestanding frame that accepts banner-like posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90" (not pictured).<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with Library staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />

<br />
[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by LIS and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display must be designed with two sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Two units available. Three-panel, double-sided display walls. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation, e) freestanding frame that accepts bannerlike posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90".<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with LIS staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />

<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by LIS and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display must be designed with two sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Two, three-panel display walls. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". It can be set up in either a zigzag line allowing for six panels, or in a triangle to form a kiosk-like unit with three panels.&nbsp; '''NOTE: This item can only be set up in those two configurations... no other options are available.''' The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation, e) freestanding frame that accepts bannerlike posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90".<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with LIS staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />

<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Panels''': Two, three-panel display walls. Each side is 72" high and 65" wide, with the individual folds being 21", 22", and 21". It can be set up in either a zigzag line allowing for six panels, or in a triangle to form a kiosk-like unit with three panels.&nbsp; '''NOTE: This item can only be set up in those two configurations... no other options are available.''' The panels are tack-able board covered with fabric.<br><br />

<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by LIS and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display must be designed with two sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation, e) freestanding frame that accepts bannerlike posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90".<br />

'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with LIS staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />
'''The following staff members are available to help you prepare and install your display:'''<br />

<hr />
<div>'''This page describes work and meeting spaces, including computer labs, ''in the libraries''. To find computer labs ''outside of the libraries'', visit the '''[http://cat.middlebury.edu/~et/facilities/ '''Guide to Academic Facilities''']'''. '''<br><br />
<br />
== General Work, Study and Meeting Space Information ==<br />
<br />
==== Guidelines ====<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
== Davis Family Library ==<br />
<br />
=== ADA Access ===<br />
<br />
Library and Information Services strives to provide the best possible service to persons with disabilities. To request special accommodations not mentioned here, please contact the Middlebury College ADA office in Meeker House. 802-443-5936 (voice) ada@middlebury.edu&nbsp;&nbsp; 802-443-7437 (TTY) 802-443-2440 (fax) <br><br />
<br />
'''Entrance'''<br />
<br />
Users are encouraged to park in the designated spots on Old Chapel Road and enter the library through the front door. Special access to the Storrs Ave. doors for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources. Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk. Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access<br><br />
<br />
'''Emergency Exits'''<br />
<br />
Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />
<br />
Elevator #2 in the NE corner of the building is designed to operate on the emergency generator during a power failure.<br><br />
<br />
'''Retrieving Materials'''<br>Some users may not be able to reach all of the library shelves and some people may have trouble reading the call numbers on the spines of the books. Users may request assistance with book retrieval by contacting Circulation Services in person, by phone x5494, or email. <br>library_circulation@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
'''Equipment Available'''<br>Special equipment is available in LIB241, right around the corner from the print /copy center on the Main Level. There you’ll find a CCTV magnifying viewer and a computer workstation with a zoom text viewer and reader, as well as Dragon voice recognition software for English and Spanish. Ask for the “ADA computer” password at the Circulation Desk or Research Desk.<br />
<br />
=== Carrels<br> ===<br />
<br />

Located throughout the library, 202 total.<br><br />
<br />
[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. Students may also present displays related to their academic work. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Art panels''': A three-panel display wall. Each panel is 82" high and 36" wide. It can be set up in either a zigzag line allowing for six panels, or in a triangle to form a kiosk-like unit with three panels.&nbsp; '''NOTE: This item can only be set up in those two configurations... no other options are available.''' The panels are hard board and are best for displaying framed pieces hung on wire from hooks at the top of the panel.&nbsp; You can also hang poster board or paper using the removable double stick foam tape that is available for sale at the Bookstore. Sometimes masking tape will also work for hanging very light weight paper, but please do not use scotch tape that is difficult to remove from the boards afterward.<br><br />
<br />
(Please note that these photos are out of date... there are actually three panels, not four.)<br />

|}<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by LIS and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display must be designed with two sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation, e) freestanding frame that accepts bannerlike posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90".<br />
<br />

<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with LIS staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />

<hr />
<div>=== GENERAL INFO ===<br />
The following is a partial overview of general building information that is shared with new LIS employees with offices in Davis Library. It is posted here as an overview/reminder for everyone. (Some information in the original email has been omitted for security purposes.)<br />
<br />
Because the library is not just a classroom and office building, but also stores some of the most valuable collections owned by the College, having an office here is unique and I'd like to call a few things to your attention.<br />
<br />
'''Emergency Preparedness'''<br />
<br />
All Middlebury College employees should become and stay familiar with the College-wide Emergency Response Procedures on the web at [http://www.middlebury.edu/er go/er] If Davis Library or Voter Hall are evacuated, the designated meeting area for staff is in front of Warner Hall. If Armstrong Library is evacuated the designated meeting area is on the hill next to Lang Dorm. If you work at a public service desk that deals with customers face to face, there may be additional emergency procedures that you should know about, so please ask your supervisor for an orientation to any department specific emergency manual.<br />
<br />
'''Access and Security'''<br />
<br />
-- You have (or shortly will have) card access to the exterior doors because you are a building "resident". That means that you can come and go whenever you want, including when the building is not open to the public. If you are in the building when it is not open to the public and you see any suspicious behavior, please call the Office of Public Safety (x5911) to let them know. You should never let anyone enter the building with you when it is not open to the public. Everyone who has good reason to be in the building when it is closed has been given card access.<br />
<br />
-- You are responsible for helping LIS maintain the security of the collections and therefore, even when the building is open to the public, please do not let people in or out through the back, Storrs Ave. doors unless they are physically unable to walk to the front door. Those without card access should exit the building through the front doors. While this is an inconvenience at times, it is important to maintain just one entrance and exit to the building for the sake of the security of the collections. If you allow someone you know to enter through the back doors with you as a favor, please remind them that they must exit through the front door. If you have a visitor and you would like to escort them to the back door as they leave, you are welcome to do so as long as they are not taking any library materials with them that they have not checked out.<br />
<br />
-- There is a toggle switch just above the doors as you exit the building. This switch controls the automatic door feature for handicapped access and should always be left in the "auto" position. If you would like a detailed, hands on explanation of this feature do not hesitate to ask me for one.<br />
<br />
-- Every now and then you might find that the interior doors do not unlock after you've used your access card. This is usually because somebody else has recently exited or entered and the doors had not reset when your card was read. If this happens, simply go back outside, wait a moment, then use your card again. It is impossible to get stuck between the two sets of doors because the exterior doors have a crash bar that can be used to open the doors even if they are locked.<br />
<br />
-- The emergency exit doors at the bottom of staircases #1 & #4 should not be used except in an emergency.<br />
<br />
-- The key to your office also opens common spaces like the staff room, loading dock, classrooms, and meeting rooms.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Office logistics'''<br />
<br />
-- If you want to keep library materials in your office, please help LIS maintain accurate collections information by taking a few moments to stop by the Circulation Desk to check them out.<br />
<br />
-- The use of heat-generating small appliances (like coffee makers, hot plates, etc.) in offices is discouraged because they can be a fire hazard. If you do use such appliances in your office they must have an automatic shut off feature. You are, of course, encouraged to use the Staff Room in LIB121 where you will find a well equipped kitchen.<br />
<br />
-- Of course the use of open flames (like candles or potpourri burners) is strictly prohibited.<br />
<br />
-- Please keep any food you have stored in your office in sealed containers. We have occasionally had a problem with mice in the building and you don't want mice feeding on that open dish of chocolate on top of your desk any more than we want those mice nesting in the books on the shelves.<br />
<br />
-- Those who have an office in the building have special privileges when it comes to reserving meeting rooms like LIB105, LIB145, LIB221. Please ask the LIS Administrative Assistant for more information.<br />
<br />
'''Stuff that comes and goes'''<br />
<br />
-- Mailboxes are in the Staff Room, LIB121. Outgoing mail may be left at the Info Desk or in the Staff Room.<br />
<br />
-- Those associated with CTLR generally send and receive faxes through that office at x2418. Those associated with LIS do so through Collection Management at x5698.<br />
<br />
-- Printing arrangements vary throughout the building so please ask your nearby neighbors what they do and don't hesitate to contact the Help Desk for assistance at x2200.<br />
<br />
-- Photocopiers are in the print/copy centers LIB142 and LBI242. Follow the directions attached to the machines to photocopy. See go/print for full information on how to print.<br />
<br />
-- The loading dock is a busy place. If you are notified that a package has arrived for you there, please collect the package as soon as conveniently possible.<br />
<br />
-- The Custodial Team routinely cleans offices on Wednesdays. Please refrain from putting fresh food garbage in your office trash because fresh food waste can attract insects and vermin. Instead, please deposit any such waste in the trash in either a bathroom or in the large bins in the central recycling areas. The Custodians do not routinely empty the small blue recycling bins or the trash bins in your office so you need to empty your own into the large bins in the central areas. Ask your new neighbor where the nearest ones are. Spare trash bags are kept in the supply closet LIB201A.<br />
<br />
Joseph Watson routinely coordinates LIS requests to Facilities Services for things in the building that need to be repaired. Please don't hesitate to ask questions or bring problems to his attention at any time.<br />
<br />
=== COMPACT SHELVING ===<br />
When shelving is malfunctioning please ask for assistance at the Circulation Desk. An override key can usually be used to open an aisle, but please use caution and make sure all aisles are empty before moving a carriage because the override key disables the safety features. If the override key doesn't work, a battery pack override may. The battery pack should always be kept fully charged because using a partially charged battery pack can damage the system.<br />
<br />
All problems should be reported to either the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor or the Facilities Coordinator. Signs will be posted to indicate that there's a known issue, so if there aren't signs posted in the problem area you should assume nobody knows that the shelving isn't working.<br />
<br />
Our compact shelving contractor is Donnegan Systems. If necessary, the Facilities Coordinator will place a service call. If he's unavailable, a service call to Donnegan may be placed at 1-800-222-6311.<br />
<br />
A manual for the compact shelving section L1-L35 can be found here: [[File:CompactShelveManual2009_eclipse.pdf]]<br />
<br />
A log of problems is kept [https://docs.google.com/a/middlebury.edu/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aq2wcICwqfc0dHdRaTFsdDdQNXEtMjNNXy1CdzQ3YlE here..]. please keep it updated.<br />
<br />
Please see this image for the numbering system for the compact shelving carriages.<br />

=== DOORS ===<br />
<br />
==== Access: ====<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the exterior front doors into the vestibule is 24/7 for anyone with a valid ID''' Students, Faculty, &amp; Staff have 24x7 access into the Vestibule. (Those with the following cards do not have ''access'' cards (but rather mag stripe only) and therefore cannot use card readers on campus. - Alumni, courtesy card, Friend of college, Spouse/Partner, Breadloaf, Faculty Emeriti, Retiree.)<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the interior front doors and back doors is:'''<br />
<br />
'''24/7 for:''' any staff or faculty member with an office in the building (including Faculty Offices LIB351-360); all LIS staff; Facilities Services “master” groups. Facilities Services Custodial access begins at 3am and for the rest of Facilities staff access begins at 6am. Access is occasionally given to Admissions tour guides during holiday weekends.<br />
<br />
'''When the building is open to the public for:''' Dining Services Supervisors; selected vendors making deliveries; faculty/staff who have assigned carrels in the building; anyone who qualifies for "handicapped access".<br />
<br />
'''Handicapped access:''' for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources.&nbsp; Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk.&nbsp; Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access.<br><br />
<br />
Non-ADA access to the back doors may be given at the discretion of the Dean of LIS.<br><br />
<br />
==== Door numbering:<br> ====<br />
<br />
The sets of doors are numbered.&nbsp; This can come in handy when reporting malfunctions to Facilities or Public Safety.<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Hold open feature on automatic doors: ====<br />
<br />
Each of the doors that are equipped with an automatic door opener for handicapped access has a small toggle switch over the interior side of the door. This switch has three positions, off, auto, hold open. '''The switch should be left in the "auto" position.''' If it is turned off the push button used to open the door will not work.<br />
<br />
The "hold open" position can be used to hold the door open. At the back doors use your access card then flip the switch to hold open and the door will open and stay that way until the switch is turned back to auto. At the front doors, press the button to open the doors and then flip the toggle switch.<br />
<br />
====Posting items on doors: ====<br />
Anything posted anywhere except bulletin boards should be removed and recycled. (Some semi-permanant signs for College Offices may be posted, but these should be laminated.) The college handbook states "Posters are permitted on designated bulletin boards or kiosks only. The organization or individual sponsoring an event or making an announcement is responsible for removing the material within 24 hours after the conclusion of the event or within 30 days of the posting, whichever occurs first. Please refrain from posting flyers on doors, walls, windows, buildings, lamp posts, trees or stairwells. Flyers found in these locations will be removed by College staff. Fines and/or disciplinary action may result from violations." (See the College Handbook Sec.8 pt.B [http://www.middlebury.edu/about/handbook/student_life/student_org_policies/node/135501 here])<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Keys: ====<br />
<br />
Keys are tracked and issued through the Dean of LIS's office. Requests for keys are made to the LIS Administrative Assistant. The request must come from the supervisor of the person that the key is being issued to.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
=== ELEVATORS AND STAIRWAYS ===<br />
The elevators and stairways are numbered so they can be referred to in an emergency or for general maintenance issues. Please see the image below for the numbering scheme. During a power outage Elevator #2 will continue to operate on generated power but if the generator stops running the elevator will stop where it is. During a power outage elevators #1 and #3 will go to the lower level, open once, then close and cease to operate.<br />

=== FALLING ICE OR SNOW, from roof over doors ===<br />
<br />
If dangerous snow or ice accumulates over a door, recruit a staff member to stand guard and alert people of the problem until signage is posted, then call Joseph x5487 and let him know about it. (Call your building coordinator if you're working at a branch library.)<br />
<br />
'''If you do not reach Joseph in person-- &nbsp;'''<br />
<br />
'''for front doors: '''There are large yellow plastic folding signs in the back of closet 201A that should be placed outside on the patio so that people approaching the building are alerted to the problem. There are also laminated 8.5"x11" signs in the wall pocket in 201A that should be taped to the glass on the inside of the exterior doors.&nbsp; Once this has been done, call Facilities Services x5472 (or, if FS is closed call public safety x5911) and alert them to the situation, letting them know that you've posted signage.<br />
<br />
'''for back door:''' use the portable directional signs that are stored in the loading dock and the staff room to post signs outside.&nbsp; Use the spare signs in 201A to post signs on the inside doors.&nbsp; If large icicles have formed over either door post a sign encouraging people to use the other exit.<br />
<br />
These procedures would also be appropriate for any immediate safety hazard that you become aware of. It is very important that any and all of us react to a hazard and keep ourselves, coworkers, and the public, safe from harm. Don't assume somebody else will notice and deal with it, please be proactive and follow up until you're sure that somebody is working to resolve the situation and you're not needed. There are "caution, wet floor" signs in the basement near the custodial supplies.<br><br />
<br />
There is a known issue with snow and ice falling from the roof over the front door. If the weather conditions are just right, the snow melts and compacts and then slides off under the snow guards and over the gutter. Another, but less common problem, is icicles forming in the scuppers over the back doors.<br />
<br />
=== MAINTENANCE REQUESTS ===<br />
Routine requests for Davis Library are funneled through the LIS Facilitates Coor., Joseph Watson. Things like broken locks, burned out light bulbs, plugged toilets, etc., should be reported to Joseph who will then place a request with Facilities Services. When Joseph is out of the office, Doreen Bernier the Asst. to the Dean of LIS can also place requests.<br />
Any problems that could be considered a safety hazard should be reported immediately, and if you don't reach Joseph, the problem should be reported directly to the Facilities Expeditor at x5472.<br />
<br />
=== POWER OUTAGES ===<br />
<br />
See Davis Library Emergency Manual for emergency procedures. http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
When the main power to the building fails, a generator located in the basement under the staff room should automatically start and power portions of the building as follows:<br />
*Elevator #2 (near loading dock) will operate normally.<br />
*Elevators #1 and #3 will automatically go to level 1, will open and shut once, then will no longer operate. If the generator fails to operate all elevators stop.<br />
*Card access and alarm systems.<br />
*ITS machine/server room.<br />
*Circulation desk.<br />
*Some lighting (but not all lights) sufficient to illuminate pathways to exits.<br />
<br />
Compact shelving will not operate; loading dock overhead door will not operate; most outlets will not work; phone system will work as long as battery backup lasts; PA system will work as long as phone system works.<br />
<br />
If the generator fails to operate, the door locking system runs on battery and will only last a little while. If this happens ask Public Safety (x5911) to put the doors in card access mode to save the battery backup and also tell them we are propping the doors open. Retrieve concrete blocks from closet 201A and prop one exterior door and one interior door open.<br />
<br />
If the power comes back on right away but the generator has already started, then the generator will run for about a half hour before shutting down. If this happens some parts of the building may smell like exhaust because the exhaust for the generator is on the roof near the air intake for the HVAC system. (This isn't a problem if the power is out because the HVAC system is shut off.)<br />
<br />
When we lose electricity the fire doors on staircase #1-#4 will shut and should be reopened as needed when the power returns. Sometimes the crash bar alarms on the emergency exits will sound after the power comes back on and will need to be reset by either the LIS Facilities Coor. or Facilities Services. Some of the compact shelving may not operate properly after a power outage and will need to be reset by the LIS Facilities Coor., or the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor.<br />
<br />
=== WATER LEAKS/INCURSIONS ===<br />
<br />
==== Reporting a leak, how to: ====<br />
If the water leak is severe and causing damage to library collections or equipment, follow the procedures in the emergency manual here-- http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
'''When a water leak is noticed and it is minor and not causing damage''' to collections or equipment, report it to Joseph Watson x5487. If you don't reach Joseph, leave him a message about the leak and then contact Facilities Services directly at x5472. If FS is closed (evenings and weekends) call the Office of Public Safety and ask them to reach FS on-call personnel if deemed necessary. Describe the situation giving them all details as needed and realistically indicating the severity of the situation. If placing a basket under the leak until regular FS staff can come during normal working hours will suffice, please do so but inform PS so that they can have the night watch guard check on the leak.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Storm drain, exterior, overflow: ====<br />
<br />
During very heavy rains the storm drains that are just outside of the emergency exits at the bottom of staircases number 1 and 4 have been known to overflow. Instead of water going down them, water flows up and out of them like a geyser. This problem was severe enough to cause water to flow under the door at the bottom of staircase number 4 and flow into the lower level soaking the carpet adjacent to the Harman Reading Area as well as seeping under the wall into the reception area of Special Collections soaking the carpet there. This is a known issue as of the Summer of 2008.&nbsp; If we receive very heavy rains, it makes sense to check these areas to see if there is a problem and then report it as needed following the instructions in the "reporting a leak" section of this wiki.&nbsp; If water is flowing under the door, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR because the door might be holding back a quantity of water.<br></div>Joseph Watsonhttps://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/LIS/index.php?title=Work_and_Meeting_Spaces&diff=30927Work and Meeting Spaces2014-09-15T15:08:49Z<p>Joseph Watson: /* DAVIS FAMILY LIBRARY Displays */</p>

=== ADA Access ===<br />
<br />
Library and Information Services strives to provide the best possible service to persons with disabilities. To request special accommodations not mentioned here, please contact the Middlebury College ADA office in Meeker House. 802-443-5936 (voice) ada@middlebury.edu&nbsp;&nbsp; 802-443-7437 (TTY) 802-443-2440 (fax) <br><br />
<br />
'''Entrance'''<br />
<br />
Users are encouraged to park in the designated spots on Old Chapel Road and enter the library through the front door. Special access to the Storrs Ave. doors for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources. Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk. Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access<br><br />
<br />
'''Emergency Exits'''<br />
<br />
Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />
<br />
Elevator #2 in the NE corner of the building is designed to operate on the emergency generator during a power failure.<br><br />
<br />
'''Retrieving Materials'''<br>Some users may not be able to reach all of the library shelves and some people may have trouble reading the call numbers on the spines of the books. Users may request assistance with book retrieval by contacting Circulation Services in person, by phone x5494, or email. <br>library_circulation@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
'''Equipment Available'''<br>Special equipment is available in LIB241, right around the corner from the print /copy center on the Main Level. There you’ll find a CCTV magnifying viewer and a computer workstation with a zoom text viewer and reader, as well as Dragon voice recognition software for English and Spanish. Ask for the “ADA computer” password at the Circulation Desk or Research Desk.<br />
<br />
=== Carrels<br> ===<br />

[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />
<br />
===== DAVIS FAMILY LIBRARY Displays =====<br />
<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Art panels''': A three-panel display wall. Each panel is 82" high and 36" wide. It can be set up in either a zigzag line allowing for six panels, or in a triangle to form a kiosk-like unit with three panels.&nbsp; '''NOTE: This item can only be set up in those two configurations... no other options are available.''' The panels are hard board and are best for displaying framed pieces hung on wire from hooks at the top of the panel.&nbsp; You can also hang poster board or paper using the removable double stick foam tape that is available for sale at the Bookstore. Sometimes masking tape will also work for hanging very light weight paper, but please do not use scotch tape that is difficult to remove from the boards afterward.<br><br />
<br />
(Please note that these photos are out of date... there are actually three panels, not four.)<br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by LIS and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display must be designed with two sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation, e) freestanding frame that accepts bannerlike posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90".<br />
<br />

<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for Davis Library and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the Technology Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with LIS staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. Library staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />
'''The following staff members are available to help you prepare and install your display:'''<br />

Library and Information Services strives to provide the best possible service to persons with disabilities. To request special accommodations not mentioned here, please contact the Middlebury College ADA office in Meeker House. 802-443-5936 (voice) ada@middlebury.edu&nbsp;&nbsp; 802-443-7437 (TTY) 802-443-2440 (fax) <br><br />
<br />
'''Entrance'''<br />
<br />
Users are encouraged to park in the designated spots on Old Chapel Road and enter the library through the front door.

Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />
<br />
Elevator #2 in the NE corner of the building is designed to operate on the emergency generator during a power failure.<br><br />
<br />
'''Retrieving Materials'''<br>Some users may not be able to reach all of the library shelves and some people may have trouble reading the call numbers on the spines of the books. Users may request assistance with book retrieval by contacting Circulation Services in person, by phone x5494, or email. <br>library_circulation@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />

<br />
[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Middlebury College groups and offices are encouraged to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of Library staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />
<br />
===== DAVIS FAMILY LIBRARY Displays =====<br />
<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Art panels''': A three-panel display wall. Each panel is 82" high and 36" wide. It can be set up in either a zigzag line allowing for six panels, or in a triangle to form a kiosk-like unit with three panels.&nbsp; '''NOTE: This item can only be set up in those two configurations... no other options are available.''' The panels are hard board and are best for displaying framed pieces hung on wire from hooks at the top of the panel.&nbsp; You can also hang poster board or paper using the removable double stick foam tape that is available for sale at the Bookstore. Sometimes masking tape will also work for hanging very light weight paper, but please do not use scotch tape that is difficult to remove from the boards afterward.<br><br />
<br />
(Please note that these photos are out of date... there are actually three panels, not four.)<br />

|}<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by LIS and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display must be designed with two sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation, e) freestanding frame that accepts bannerlike posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90".<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the LIS Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the LIS Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for LIS and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the LIS Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the LIS Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with LIS staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. LIS staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />

Located throughout the library, 202 total.<br><br />
<br />
[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Library &amp; Information Services encourages groups and offices to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of LIS staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />
<br />
===== DAVIS FAMILY LIBRARY Displays =====<br />
<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for one week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday.''' Depending on availability and demand, some reservations may be made for two weeks. To reserve one of these spaces contact the Davis Library Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Art panels''': A three-panel display wall. Each panel is 82" high and 36" wide. It can be set up in either a zigzag line allowing for six panels, or in a triangle to form a kiosk-like unit with three panels.&nbsp; '''NOTE: This item can only be set up in those two configurations... no other options are available.''' The panels are hard board and are best for displaying framed pieces hung on wire from hooks at the top of the panel.&nbsp; You can also hang poster board or paper using the removable double stick foam tape that is available for sale at the Bookstore. Sometimes masking tape will also work for hanging very light weight paper, but please do not use scotch tape that is difficult to remove from the boards afterward.<br><br />
<br />
(Please note that these photos are out of date... there are actually three panels, not four.)<br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by LIS and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display must be designed with two sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation, e) freestanding frame that accepts bannerlike posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90".<br />
<br />

<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the LIS Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the LIS Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for LIS and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the LIS Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the LIS Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with LIS staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. LIS staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />

<br />
[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Library &amp; Information Services encourages groups and offices to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of LIS staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for a week, '''running from noon on Monday to noon on Monday''' To reserve one of these spaces contact the LIS Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Art panels''': A three-panel display wall. Each panel is 82" high and 36" wide. It can be set up in either a zigzag line allowing for six panels, or in a triangle to form a kiosk-like unit with three panels.&nbsp; '''NOTE: This item can only be set up in those two configurations... no other options are available.''' The panels are hard board and are best for displaying framed pieces hung on wire from hooks at the top of the panel.&nbsp; You can also hang poster board or paper using the removable double stick foam tape that is available for sale at the Bookstore. Sometimes masking tape will also work for hanging very light weight paper, but please do not use scotch tape that is difficult to remove from the boards afterward.<br><br />
<br />
(Please note that these photos are out of date... there are actually three panels, not four.)<br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by LIS and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display must be designed with two sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation, e) freestanding frame that accepts bannerlike posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90".<br />
<br />
[[File:Poster_frame_picture1.jpg]]<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the LIS Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the LIS Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for LIS and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the LIS Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the LIS Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with LIS staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. LIS staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />

[http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Borrowing#Study_Carrels_and_Library_Lockers Library Carrel and Locker Guidelines]<br />
<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR supports teaching and learning at Middlebury in a wide variety of ways. For students, it is<br />
a hub of educational inquiry and academic growth in writing, oral presentation, quantitative reasoning, time management, as well as course content tutoring. Students can also get information and advice about undergraduate research opportunities and about a number of nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships. For faculty, it offers resources and programs to advance teaching. Beginning in the 2014/15 academic year, it will also include the new Academic Technology team and the new Digital Liberal Arts initiative.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Library &amp; Information Services encourages groups and offices to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of LIS staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />

<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for a week, '''running from noon on Tuesday to noon on Tuesday''' To reserve one of these spaces contact the LIS Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Art panels''': A three-panel display wall. Each panel is 82" high and 36" wide. It can be set up in either a zigzag line allowing for six panels, or in a triangle to form a kiosk-like unit with three panels.&nbsp; '''NOTE: This item can only be set up in those two configurations... no other options are available.''' The panels are hard board and are best for displaying framed pieces hung on wire from hooks at the top of the panel.&nbsp; You can also hang poster board or paper using the removable double stick foam tape that is available for sale at the Bookstore. Sometimes masking tape will also work for hanging very light weight paper, but please do not use scotch tape that is difficult to remove from the boards afterward.<br><br />
<br />
(Please note that these photos are out of date... there are actually three panels, not four.)<br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Book display unit:''' An a-frame with four book shelves on it and a 12" x 37" tack board above. Can be set up and used in a variety of ways and placed where needed.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Book display small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Book display small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Table:''' a 24" x 38" desk/table that can be used as a display surface or to hold one or two computer monitors.<br><br />
<br />
[[Image:Table small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Table small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
'''Large rolling bulletin board:&nbsp;''' One of these is owned by LIS and is routinely available for displays.&nbsp; The tacking surface is 68" wide and 44" high. These are two-sided boards and if used the display must be designed with two sides.&nbsp; If you need more than one, Facilities Services has a fleet of these boards that can be placed in the Davis Family Library by request.''Please note: There is an approximately $12.00 delivery fee for each of these boards and therefore the person or group requiring the board must provide an account number in order to schedule delivery.''''&nbsp;'''''<b>Make arrangements for these and all other items by emailing&nbsp; jwatson@middlebury.edu<br> </b><br />
<br />
[[Image:Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG|thumb|none|Large rolling bb small wiki.JPG]]<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation, e) freestanding frame that accepts bannerlike posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90".<br />

<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the LIS Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for LIS and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the LIS Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the LIS Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with LIS staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. LIS staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />

<div>=== GENERAL INFO ===<br />
The following is a partial overview of general building information that is shared with new LIS employees with offices in Davis Library. It is posted here as an overview/reminder for everyone. (Some information in the original email has been omitted for security purposes.)<br />
<br />
Because the library is not just a classroom and office building, but also stores some of the most valuable collections owned by the College, having an office here is unique and I'd like to call a few things to your attention.<br />
<br />
'''Emergency Preparedness'''<br />
<br />
All Middlebury College employees should become and stay familiar with the College-wide Emergency Response Procedures on the web at [http://www.middlebury.edu/er go/er] If Davis Library or Voter Hall are evacuated, the designated meeting area for staff is in front of Warner Hall. If Armstrong Library is evacuated the designated meeting area is on the hill next to Lang Dorm. If you work at a public service desk that deals with customers face to face, there may be additional emergency procedures that you should know about, so please ask your supervisor for an orientation to any department specific emergency manual.<br />
<br />
'''Access and Security'''<br />
<br />
-- You have (or shortly will have) card access to the exterior doors because you are a building "resident". That means that you can come and go whenever you want, including when the building is not open to the public. If you are in the building when it is not open to the public and you see any suspicious behavior, please call the Office of Public Safety (x5911) to let them know. You should never let anyone enter the building with you when it is not open to the public. Everyone who has good reason to be in the building when it is closed has been given card access.<br />
<br />
-- You are responsible for helping LIS maintain the security of the collections and therefore, even when the building is open to the public, please do not let people in or out through the back, Storrs Ave. doors unless they are physically unable to walk to the front door. Those without card access should exit the building through the front doors. While this is an inconvenience at times, it is important to maintain just one entrance and exit to the building for the sake of the security of the collections. If you allow someone you know to enter through the back doors with you as a favor, please remind them that they must exit through the front door. If you have a visitor and you would like to escort them to the back door as they leave, you are welcome to do so as long as they are not taking any library materials with them that they have not checked out.<br />
<br />
-- There is a toggle switch just above the doors as you exit the building. This switch controls the automatic door feature for handicapped access and should always be left in the "auto" position. If you would like a detailed, hands on explanation of this feature do not hesitate to ask me for one.<br />
<br />
-- Every now and then you might find that the interior doors do not unlock after you've used your access card. This is usually because somebody else has recently exited or entered and the doors had not reset when your card was read. If this happens, simply go back outside, wait a moment, then use your card again. It is impossible to get stuck between the two sets of doors because the exterior doors have a crash bar that can be used to open the doors even if they are locked.<br />
<br />
-- The emergency exit doors at the bottom of staircases #1 & #4 should not be used except in an emergency.<br />
<br />
-- The key to your office also opens common spaces like the staff room, loading dock, classrooms, and meeting rooms.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Office logistics'''<br />
<br />
-- If you want to keep library materials in your office, please help LIS maintain accurate collections information by taking a few moments to stop by the Circulation Desk to check them out.<br />
<br />
-- The use of heat-generating small appliances (like coffee makers, hot plates, etc.) in offices is discouraged because they can be a fire hazard. If you do use such appliances in your office they must have an automatic shut off feature. You are, of course, encouraged to use the Staff Room in LIB121 where you will find a well equipped kitchen.<br />
<br />
-- Of course the use of open flames (like candles or potpourri burners) is strictly prohibited.<br />
<br />
-- Please keep any food you have stored in your office in sealed containers. We have occasionally had a problem with mice in the building and you don't want mice feeding on that open dish of chocolate on top of your desk any more than we want those mice nesting in the books on the shelves.<br />
<br />
-- Those who have an office in the building have special privileges when it comes to reserving meeting rooms like LIB105, LIB145, LIB221. Please ask the LIS Administrative Assistant for more information.<br />
<br />
'''Stuff that comes and goes'''<br />
<br />
-- Mailboxes are in the Staff Room, LIB121. Outgoing mail may be left at the Info Desk or in the Staff Room.<br />
<br />
-- Those associated with CTLR generally send and receive faxes through that office at x2418. Those associated with LIS do so through Collection Management at x5698.<br />
<br />
-- Printing arrangements vary throughout the building so please ask your nearby neighbors what they do and don't hesitate to contact the Help Desk for assistance at x2200.<br />
<br />
-- Photocopiers are in the print/copy centers LIB142 and LBI242. Follow the directions attached to the machines to photocopy. See go/print for full information on how to print.<br />
<br />
-- The loading dock is a busy place. If you are notified that a package has arrived for you there, please collect the package as soon as conveniently possible.<br />
<br />
-- The Custodial Team routinely cleans offices on Wednesdays. Please refrain from putting fresh food garbage in your office trash because fresh food waste can attract insects and vermin. Instead, please deposit any such waste in the trash in either a bathroom or in the large bins in the central recycling areas. The Custodians do not routinely empty the small blue recycling bins or the trash bins in your office so you need to empty your own into the large bins in the central areas. Ask your new neighbor where the nearest ones are. Spare trash bags are kept in the supply closet LIB201A.<br />
<br />
Joseph Watson routinely coordinates LIS requests to Facilities Services for things in the building that need to be repaired. Please don't hesitate to ask questions or bring problems to his attention at any time.<br />
<br />
=== COMPACT SHELVING ===<br />
When shelving is malfunctioning please ask for assistance at the Circulation Desk. An override key can usually be used to open an aisle, but please use caution and make sure all aisles are empty before moving a carriage because the override key disables the safety features. If the override key doesn't work, a battery pack override may. The battery pack should always be kept fully charged because using a partially charged battery pack can damage the system.<br />
<br />
All problems should be reported to either the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor or the Facilities Coordinator. Signs will be posted to indicate that there's a known issue, so if there aren't signs posted in the problem area you should assume nobody knows that the shelving isn't working.<br />
<br />
Our compact shelving contractor is Donnegan Systems. If necessary, the Facilities Coordinator will place a service call. If he's unavailable, a service call to Donnegan may be placed at 1-800-222-6311.<br />
<br />
A manual for the compact shelving section L1-L35 can be found here: [[File:CompactShelveManual2009_eclipse.pdf]]<br />
<br />
A log of problems is kept [https://docs.google.com/a/middlebury.edu/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aq2wcICwqfc0dHdRaTFsdDdQNXEtMjNNXy1CdzQ3YlE here..]. please keep it updated.<br />
<br />
Please see this image for the numbering system for the compact shelving carriages.<br />

<br /><br />
<br />
=== DOORS ===<br />
<br />
==== Access: ====<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the exterior front doors into the vestibule is 24/7 for anyone with a valid ID''' Students, Faculty, &amp; Staff have 24x7 access into the Vestibule. (Those with the following cards do not have ''access'' cards (but rather mag stripe only) and therefore cannot use card readers on campus. - Alumni, courtesy card, Friend of college, Spouse/Partner, Breadloaf, Faculty Emeriti, Retiree.)<br />
<br />
'''Card Access through the interior front doors and back doors is:'''<br />
<br />
'''24/7 for:''' any staff or faculty member with an office in the building (including Faculty Offices LIB351-360); all LIS staff; Facilities Services “master” groups. Facilities Services Custodial access begins at 3am and for the rest of Facilities staff access begins at 6am. Access is occasionally given to Admissions tour guides during holiday weekends.<br />
<br />
'''When the building is open to the public for:''' Dining Services Supervisors; selected vendors making deliveries; faculty/staff who have assigned carrels in the building; anyone who qualifies for "handicapped access".<br />
<br />
'''Handicapped access:''' for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources.&nbsp; Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk.&nbsp; Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access.<br><br />
<br />
Non-ADA access to the back doors may be given at the discretion of the Dean of LIS.<br><br />
<br />
==== Door numbering:<br> ====<br />
<br />
The sets of doors are numbered.&nbsp; This can come in handy when reporting malfunctions to Facilities or Public Safety.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Hold open feature on automatic doors: ====<br />
<br />
Each of the doors that are equipped with an automatic door opener for handicapped access has a small toggle switch over the interior side of the door. This switch has three positions, off, auto, hold open. '''The switch should be left in the "auto" position.''' If it is turned off the push button used to open the door will not work.<br />
<br />
The "hold open" position can be used to hold the door open. At the back doors use your access card then flip the switch to hold open and the door will open and stay that way until the switch is turned back to auto. At the front doors, press the button to open the doors and then flip the toggle switch.<br />
<br />
====Posting items on doors: ====<br />
Anything posted anywhere except bulletin boards should be removed and recycled. The college handbook states "Posters are permitted on designated bulletin boards or kiosks only. The organization or individual sponsoring an event or making an announcement is responsible for removing the material within 24 hours after the conclusion of the event or within 30 days of the posting, whichever occurs first. Please refrain from posting flyers on doors, walls, windows, buildings, lamp posts, trees or stairwells. Flyers found in these locations will be removed by College staff. Fines and/or disciplinary action may result from violations." (See the College Handbook Sec.8 pt.B [http://www.middlebury.edu/about/handbook/student_life/student_org_policies/node/135501 here])<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Keys: ====<br />
<br />
Keys are tracked and issued through the Dean of LIS's office. Requests for keys are made to the LIS Administrative Assistant. The request must come from the supervisor of the person that the key is being issued to.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
=== ELEVATORS AND STAIRWAYS ===<br />
The elevators and stairways are numbered so they can be referred to in an emergency or for general maintenance issues. Please see the image below for the numbering scheme. During a power outage Elevator #2 will continue to operate on generated power but if the generator stops running the elevator will stop where it is. During a power outage elevators #1 and #3 will go to the lower level, open once, then close and cease to operate.<br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== FALLING ICE OR SNOW, from roof over doors ===<br />
<br />
If dangerous snow or ice accumulates over a door, recruit a staff member to stand guard and alert people of the problem until signage is posted, then call Joseph x5487 and let him know about it. (Call your building coordinator if you're working at a branch library.)<br />
<br />
'''If you do not reach Joseph in person-- &nbsp;'''<br />
<br />
'''for front doors: '''There are large yellow plastic folding signs in the back of closet 201A that should be placed outside on the patio so that people approaching the building are alerted to the problem. There are also laminated 8.5"x11" signs in the wall pocket in 201A that should be taped to the glass on the inside of the exterior doors.&nbsp; Once this has been done, call Facilities Services x5472 (or, if FS is closed call public safety x5911) and alert them to the situation, letting them know that you've posted signage.<br />
<br />
'''for back door:''' use the portable directional signs that are stored in the loading dock and the staff room to post signs outside.&nbsp; Use the spare signs in 201A to post signs on the inside doors.&nbsp; If large icicles have formed over either door post a sign encouraging people to use the other exit.<br />
<br />
These procedures would also be appropriate for any immediate safety hazard that you become aware of. It is very important that any and all of us react to a hazard and keep ourselves, coworkers, and the public, safe from harm. Don't assume somebody else will notice and deal with it, please be proactive and follow up until you're sure that somebody is working to resolve the situation and you're not needed. There are "caution, wet floor" signs in the basement near the custodial supplies.<br><br />
<br />
There is a known issue with snow and ice falling from the roof over the front door. If the weather conditions are just right, the snow melts and compacts and then slides off under the snow guards and over the gutter. Another, but less common problem, is icicles forming in the scuppers over the back doors.<br />
<br />
=== MAINTENANCE REQUESTS ===<br />
Routine requests for Davis Library are funneled through the LIS Facilitates Coor., Joseph Watson. Things like broken locks, burned out light bulbs, plugged toilets, etc., should be reported to Joseph who will then place a request with Facilities Services. When Joseph is out of the office, Doreen Bernier the Asst. to the Dean of LIS can also place requests.<br />
Any problems that could be considered a safety hazard should be reported immediately, and if you don't reach Joseph, the problem should be reported directly to the Facilities Expeditor at x5472.<br />
<br />
=== POWER OUTAGES ===<br />
<br />
See Davis Library Emergency Manual for emergency procedures. http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
When the main power to the building fails, a generator located in the basement under the staff room should automatically start and power portions of the building as follows:<br />
*Elevator #2 (near loading dock) will operate normally.<br />
*Elevators #1 and #3 will automatically go to level 1, will open and shut once, then will no longer operate. If the generator fails to operate all elevators stop.<br />
*Card access and alarm systems.<br />
*ITS machine/server room.<br />
*Circulation desk.<br />
*Some lighting (but not all lights) sufficient to illuminate pathways to exits.<br />
<br />
Compact shelving will not operate; loading dock overhead door will not operate; most outlets will not work; phone system will work as long as battery backup lasts; PA system will work as long as phone system works.<br />
<br />
If the generator fails to operate, the door locking system runs on battery and will only last a little while. If this happens ask Public Safety (x5911) to put the doors in card access mode to save the battery backup and also tell them we are propping the doors open. Retrieve concrete blocks from closet 201A and prop one exterior door and one interior door open.<br />
<br />
If the power comes back on right away but the generator has already started, then the generator will run for about a half hour before shutting down. If this happens some parts of the building may smell like exhaust because the exhaust for the generator is on the roof near the air intake for the HVAC system. (This isn't a problem if the power is out because the HVAC system is shut off.)<br />
<br />
When we lose electricity the fire doors on staircase #1-#4 will shut and should be reopened as needed when the power returns. Sometimes the crash bar alarms on the emergency exits will sound after the power comes back on and will need to be reset by either the LIS Facilities Coor. or Facilities Services. Some of the compact shelving may not operate properly after a power outage and will need to be reset by the LIS Facilities Coor., or the Stacks Maintenance Supervisor.<br />
<br />
=== WATER LEAKS/INCURSIONS ===<br />
<br />
==== Reporting a leak, how to: ====<br />
If the water leak is severe and causing damage to library collections or equipment, follow the procedures in the emergency manual here-- http://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Emergency_Manuals<br />
<br />
<br />
'''When a water leak is noticed and it is minor and not causing damage''' to collections or equipment, report it to Joseph Watson x5487. If you don't reach Joseph, leave him a message about the leak and then contact Facilities Services directly at x5472. If FS is closed (evenings and weekends) call the Office of Public Safety and ask them to reach FS on-call personnel if deemed necessary. Describe the situation giving them all details as needed and realistically indicating the severity of the situation. If placing a basket under the leak until regular FS staff can come during normal working hours will suffice, please do so but inform PS so that they can have the night watch guard check on the leak.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
==== Storm drain, exterior, overflow: ====<br />
<br />
During very heavy rains the storm drains that are just outside of the emergency exits at the bottom of staircases number 1 and 4 have been known to overflow. Instead of water going down them, water flows up and out of them like a geyser. This problem was severe enough to cause water to flow under the door at the bottom of staircase number 4 and flow into the lower level soaking the carpet adjacent to the Harman Reading Area as well as seeping under the wall into the reception area of Special Collections soaking the carpet there. This is a known issue as of the Summer of 2008.&nbsp; If we receive very heavy rains, it makes sense to check these areas to see if there is a problem and then report it as needed following the instructions in the "reporting a leak" section of this wiki.&nbsp; If water is flowing under the door, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR because the door might be holding back a quantity of water.<br></div>Joseph Watsonhttps://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/LIS/index.php?title=Work_and_Meeting_Spaces&diff=30128Work and Meeting Spaces2014-05-08T13:07:48Z<p>Joseph Watson: /* Displays */</p>

=== ADA Access ===<br />
<br />
Library and Information Services strives to provide the best possible service to persons with disabilities. To request special accommodations not mentioned here, please contact the Middlebury College ADA office in Meeker House. 802-443-5936 (voice) ada@middlebury.edu&nbsp;&nbsp; 802-443-7437 (TTY) 802-443-2440 (fax) <br><br />
<br />
'''Entrance'''<br />
<br />
Users are encouraged to park in the designated spots on Old Chapel Road and enter the library through the front door. Special access to the Storrs Ave. doors for students is arranged through the ADA coordinator and for Faculty/Staff through Human Resources. Members of the general public may apply for such access at the Circulation Desk. Only members of the public with government issued Handicapped Persons plates or placard will be granted access<br><br />
<br />
'''Emergency Exits'''<br />
<br />
Please note that the Main Level and the Lower Level have at-grade exits but the Upper Level and Mezzanines are accessed only by the elevators, which may not be used in case of fire. If you are a wheelchair user and you can’t exit the building during a fire alarm, wait inside one of the stairwells for rescue personnel. If possible, note the staircase number (1-4) and ask someone exiting the building to notify emergency responders of your location, or call 911 from a cell phone to alert rescuers of your location. The stairwells are designed as “safe zones” during a fire with doors that shut automatically and an independent air circulation system.<br />
<br />
Elevator #2 in the NE corner of the building is designed to operate on the emergency generator during a power failure.<br><br />
<br />
'''Retrieving Materials'''<br>Some users may not be able to reach all of the library shelves and some people may have trouble reading the call numbers on the spines of the books. Users may request assistance with book retrieval by contacting Circulation Services in person, by phone x5494, or email. <br>library_circulation@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
'''Equipment Available'''<br>Special equipment is available in LIB241, right around the corner from the print /copy center on the Main Level. There you’ll find a CCTV magnifying viewer and a computer workstation with a zoom text viewer and reader, as well as Dragon voice recognition software for English and Spanish. Ask for the “ADA computer” password at the Circulation Desk or Research Desk.<br />
<br />

<br />
=== Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research (CTLR) ===<br />
<br />
located in LIB225.&nbsp; Please see their website [http://go.middlebury.edu/ctlr CTLR].&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br />
<br />
CTLR integrates several campus resources: the First-Year Seminar Program, the Writing Program, academic advising, faculty support for teaching and research, peer tutoring, the Office of Learning Resources, and the office of Sponsored Research. The Center aims to offer services that enrich learning and teaching at Middlebury and to encourage conversations about excellence and innovation in a residential liberal arts education.&nbsp;&nbsp; x3131 - brewer@middlebury.edu<br><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
=== Displays ===<br />
<br />
Library &amp; Information Services encourages groups and offices to present displays of library materials to coincide with current events on campus or in the world at large. (Space may also be made available for displays that do not specifically feature library materials.)<br />
<br />
Those requesting the space determine the content of displays. The group or office designs, installs, and removes the display with the assistance of LIS staff. Please remember that all policies in the College Handbook related to "Community Standards" must be adhered to. If a display includes content added by individuals, the presenters are responsible for checking the content regularly to ensure that "Community Standards" are being upheld and the display doesn't include, for instance, slanderous statements or hate speech.<br />
<br />
Student groups that want to sell or distribute anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit. No home made food products may be distributed without consent from the manager of Dining Services.<br />
<br />
Space for "tabling" (staffing a table to sell or distribute something)&nbsp;is available in the Vestibule near the Wilson Cafe (between the Atrium and the outside).&nbsp; The Vestibule is scheduled through the Events Scheduling Office.&nbsp; See '''go/schedule'''<br />
<br />
Display space may also be available at the Armstrong Library. Contact Wendy Shook via email or at x5799 for more information on Armstrong displays.<br />
<br />
===== DAVIS FAMILY LIBRARY Displays =====<br />
<br />
'''SPACES FOR TEMPORARY DISPLAYS:'''<br />
<br />
*Atrium (or lobby) on the Main Level: Can be set up in many ways with various combinations of the display props mentioned below. This space is often reserved so make your plans and place your reservation request early.<br><br />
*BB next to Helpdesk adjacent to Atrium: This is a large square pillar wrapped on all sides with bulletin board. It's well suited for displays where you're seeking comments or feedback.<br />
*Harman Periodicals Reading Area, Lower Level: This half circle reading lounge at the bottom of the grand staircase can be set up in a variety of ways using the display props mentioned below.<br />
<br />
Reservations are usually for a week, '''from noon on Monday to noon on Monday, but for the Spring '14 term we're experimenting with noon on Friday to noon on Friday.''' To reserve one of these spaces contact the LIS Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
Note-- you should spend time preparing your materials for your display the week before you are scheduled to install it. Have everything ready to go on Monday so all you have to do is put it in place. Also, please remove your display when your reservation is over, usually at noon on Monday. We will assume that displays that are not removed are abandoned and we will dispose of the contents.<br />
<br />
<br>'''EQUIPMENT AND PROPS FOR DISPLAYS: '''<br />
<br />
'''Art panels''': A three-panel display wall. Each panel is 82" high and 36" wide. It can be set up in either a zigzag line allowing for six panels, or in a triangle to form a kiosk-like unit with three panels.&nbsp; '''NOTE: This item can only be set up in those two configurations... no other options are available.''' The panels are hard board and are best for displaying framed pieces hung on wire from hooks at the top of the panel.&nbsp; You can also hang poster board or paper using the removable double stick foam tape that is available for sale at the Bookstore. Sometimes masking tape will also work for hanging very light weight paper, but please do not use scotch tape that is difficult to remove from the boards afterward.<br><br />
<br />
(Please note that these photos are out of date... there are actually three panels, not four.)<br />

<br />
<br><br />
<br />
'''Computer monitor: '''An IMac may be placed on a standing cart to display web pages or show media. Reservations for this must be made in advance and complete details of the required setup must be furnished at least 48 hours before the display is to be set up. (email jwatson@middlebury.edu)&nbsp;<br />
<br />
You are responsible for checking the computer and keeping your display going.&nbsp; Consultants at the Helpdesk Walk-in have administrative access and can help with changing settings on the iMac as needed. It's a good idea to put a sign on the iMac itself telling people what they should do to use the display... "Click to watch one of the videos!". If you're displaying a web page you should make that page the "home" page on all the browsers so that it appears when a browser is opened. (A good format for the sign that fits well on the iMac is standard letter sized paper in the horizontal orientation, printing your text on 1/2 of it. <br><br />
<br />
Usually the main challenge with using a computer for your display is making sure that your presentation, video or pictures keep looping. For that purpose, the following formats have proven successful for presenting your topic:<br />
<br />
*'''For videos''': DVD or QuickTime movie. Open VLC from the Dock: <br>To open a DVD click File =&gt; Open Disk and tick the box "No menus". <br>To open a QuickTime movie, click File =&gt; Open<br>To make the video loop, click Playback =&gt; Repeat All.<br />
*'''For images''': Save them as in a standard format such as JPEG or PNG. The default Preview program from Apple will loop your pictures in a [http://www.tuaw.com/2010/09/05/mac-101-use-preview-to-display-a-slideshow/ slideshow automatically per these instrucitons].&nbsp;<br />
*'''For presentations''': PowerPoint is strongly recommended. It can be setup to [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/powerpoint-help/set-up-a-presentation-to-run-in-a-continuous-loop-HP005195269.aspx loop per these instructions].<br />
<br />
(For assistance with producing media to display, please contact the [https://mediawiki.middlebury.edu/wiki/LIS/Digital_Media_Development Wilson Media Lab.]&nbsp;If there are needs beyond looping videos, images or presentations, please contact the Helpdesk. )<br />
<br />
'''Poster frames:''' Versatile sign stands or easels-- <br>a) Black metal stand 8.5"x11", horizon orientation. b) Silver metal stand 11"x17", portrait or horizon orientation. c) Stand that accepts one or two 3' x 2' bulletin boards, horizon or portrait orientation. d) Easels with foam core backing for any size up to 32" x 42, horizon or portrait orientation, e) freestanding frame that accepts bannerlike posters sized as large as 39.5"x 90".<br />

<br />
'''What follows is a brief checklist of things to keep in mind when preparing a display for the Davis Family Library --'''<br />
<br />
*Propose your idea to the LIS Facilities Coordinator via email explaining who?, what?, where?, when? jwatson@middlebury.edu<br />
<br />
''Once approval is granted--''<br />
<br />
*Vending: Students groups that want to sell anything must first apply to the Center for Campus Activities &amp; Leadership (CCAL) for a vending permit.<br />
*Time and Place: decide when you’d like to present your display. Discuss space options with the LIS Facilities Coordinator who will schedule your display in the calendar.<br />
*Plan: create a detailed plan for your display. Decide how you’d like it to look. Danielle Rougeau installs many exhibits for LIS and can offer advice on design. What materials will you need? You may want to consult a Reference Librarian to see what library materials would be appropriate for your display. Gather things like poster board and images for signage. If your display will include media or computing equipment like a computer, be sure to reserve those items in advance through the Helpdesk. (Be sure that you have the legal right to copy anything like images, text, video clips, etc. that you copy to create your display.) If your display is related to an upcoming event, consider including information referring to the display in the promotional materials for the event. It's a good idea to put a large title on your display so people can tell at a glance what its about.&nbsp; <u>Each display should indicate who presented it and include contact information that can be used if people viewing it have questions or comments.</u><br />
*Select library materials: If you are using library materials in your display, the day before you install your display, gather the materials from the shelves and give them to the Circulation Desk to change the status of the materials from “available” to “on display” so that library users will be able to locate the items.<br />
*Install: take all your materials and mount your display. Remember not to damage surfaces. Everything you do should be completely reversible and you should leave the display area in the same condition it was in before you installed your display. Please bring all the tools and supplies (tape, scissors, etc.) you’ll need to complete your work with you. Schedule a time with Media Services through the LIS Helpdesk to install any media equipment. If you're using any of the mobile display units coordinate the timing of their placement with the LIS Facilities Coordinator. If a computer is part of your display, remember to put a sign on or near it that explains to people what they should do to see whatever it is you're showing. <br><br />
*Publicize: work with LIS staff to set up promotional signage to direct people to your display. Submit a listing to Events at Middlebury.<br />
*Removal: when your display is scheduled to end, take it down right away and return and library materials to the Circulation Desk to have the status changed from “on display” back to “available”. LIS staff will return the books to the shelves. <br><br />
<br />
