PCS Forum Minutes - April 2013

Todd opened with a discussion about the purpose of this forum and what we wanted to accomplish. Also, we discussed what the forum should not be. The group agreed the forum should be used to express concerns, customer issues, to compare notes, for best practices of the job, and offer feedback on different experiences. However, the forum should not be used as a “gripe” session or for customer complaints. Our goal is to provide our customers with a consistent library experience.
