What could go wrong?
How has the Usage Been?
Discussion, Questions, and other Systems using Hotspots
- Wow. That’s a lot of holds.
- Learn the system. Monopolize the hotspots.
- And then don’t bring them back.
- And when you do, come in with a family member.
- And then check out the hotspot again.
- Rinse, and Repeat.
Rethink how HotSpots are Distributed
?
- Remove fixed collections and move to full floating collection
- Centrally track HotSpot use (and abuse).
- This tracking thing takes a lot of time.
- Notifying delinquent accounts.
- Disabling Hotspot access.
- Using customer Service or using web management.
What does this all look like?
First we have to make this work…
- Choose a vendor
- Put together a naming & password convention
- Set up the hotspots
Then we need to library it
- Create packaging and labeling
- Create a marc record & link Hotspots
- Get information out to Staff
- Promote in the branch
- Promote on the Website
