Dusting Project: Mission Launched
Hi everyone! This week we're starting the dusting project. The instructions and log are on a clip board by the shelf-reading log. I'll try to talk to you about it when you're at work.
Dusting Project
2/1/2009
Supplies:
• Book truck
• Yellow dust cloths
• Dust mask (re-use your dust mask; store it in your folder)
• Princeton files
Dusting does not replace shelf reading. Do both every shift (except times you work alone)
Instructions:
1. Dust the same amount of time you would shelf read: 20-30 minutes/shift
2. Use the “Dusting Log” to pick up where the person before you left off
3. Completely remove all books from the shelf and place them on the book truck
4. Dust the shelf with a yellow dust cloth
5. Dust the top and bottom of the books if needed
6. Place the books back on the shelf
7. Take care to maintain the correct call number order of the books
8. Put unruly or floppy books in princeton files to stabilize them
9. Make sure all books’ spines are flush with the edge of the shelf and are otherwise aesthetically pleasing
10. Inform Kelci of any books that are damaged and need mending. To do this, write down the call number and title and leave a note in her mailbox or email it to her. Leave the book on the shelf.
Thanks!
