CARL Statistics Language Update

Submitted by tricia.andrews on Wed, 03/01/2023 - 08:00

The "MakerSpace" wording in CARL under "Statistics" has been renamed to "Waiver".

With the launch of the Gardening Grant and Library of Things tools and tool kits, we want to have one generic place in CARL to track the waiver. Staff are still directed to ONLY use “Waiver” if they have a guest in front of them wanting to checkout a gardening tool/kit or use the Makerspace. Staff are still responsible to enter the approved waivers into the MLS Waiver User Agreement List Excel File to ensure we’re properly using the “Waiver” field in CARL.

Metro MakerSpace: What's in a Name?

Submitted by victoria.stephens on Wed, 04/04/2018 - 12:37

Wanted: Your Creativity

Why: We need a name for “potential” MakerSpace rooms at Metro, the first of which will be located in the new Bethany Library.

Background: A committee has been working on system guidelines for MakerSpaces, and one of the topics is what to name the space. The committee recommends using the same name for any MakerSpace areas that are developed in the future. The team agreed that we have a lot of staff members who are very creative, so we would like to hear your suggestions for naming the space!
