[LIBRARYDIR] curbside pickup and appointments

[Dawn Hawley]

BTC is asking students to email the library from their BTC student email account (serves as identity verification and/or opportunity to help them get that core tech account set up). We respond with a link to a google form which they complete to request a reservation. Staff log the reservations on the library outlook calendar. If I had known we'd still be doing this months later, I might have investigated Bookings or some other tool more closely for the sake of efficiency. It works pretty well, though, especially since some staff are on site, and some are still remote. :)

Subject: [LIBRARYDIR] curbside pickup and appointments

Hi all,

We are looking at doing curbside pickup and wonder how you are setting up appointments for students.   When they place the hold in Primo, is there a way to have a confirmation message with a link to make appointments?  We had been planning to call students after they place a hold because we don't want to have them navigate to a separate webpage to schedule appointments after placing their hold.

Thanks,
Erica
