Reference Questions, 1/19/2011

So begins a two hour shift here on the reference desk. It's my first day shift of the semester. There is some activity in the library, we'll see if it brings any questions.
  1. Student was having trouble downloading her syllabus from WebCT. She was in IE and she was not telling the browser it was OK to download the file.
  2. Having trouble printing
  3. Had a question about an Adobe form
  4. Looking for Mary Shelley's Frankenstein
  5. Having trouble finding a book; she was on the wrong floor
  6. Looking for the popular reading section
  7. Wanted to know where to check out books
  8. Having trouble printing a pdf. The pdf was in a webpage and there were 6 pages that were numbered with Roman numerals. She had to add the 6 pages to the page she wanted to print. She was having trouble figuring this out on her own. Bless her heart.
It's good to have a steady shift once again. It was just perfect, not too steady, but just right. I was able to finish up one of the LibGuides I have to create for the three classes I'm teaching next week. Yay for productivity!
