"Good Morning!" Check email, calendar, and start daily to-do list to help prioritize tasks. It's my week to monitor AcqHelp email so I start uploading invoices and answering some questions. Moving onto personal email: one selector wants to initiate a new vendor setup for ACH, another has requested an analytics report on a specific fund, and ASU has let me know my PCard expense report is ready for review and submission in UFGO. Next look at AcqOrder email; my name is flagged for an endowment approval stream that has been completed in DocuSign, a spreadsheet of materials to order for a grant with the Education Library, and I have six other purchase requests from selectors. While I'm looking, three more come through! I package up a return to a vendor who sent the wrong edition and return a phone call.
Time to go open mail, so exciting! Today I get two invoices, four boxes of children's books, a box of large coffee table books, a box of music scores, a rare book in a cushioned bed of bubble wrap, paper, and so much tape, some vintage Cuban comic books from Ebay, a board game, and a giant poster! I stop to carefully admire the handwritten bookplate in the rare book, laugh at one of the children's book's silly illustrations, and flip through a beautiful photography book. I verify I've been sent everything on the invoices, recycle the boxes, and load everything onto my cart.
Receive in Alma, print slips, and bring to RDS rush books I ordered for course reserves and some rare materials, including vendor descriptions to assist. Meet with a curator about some LACC materials I ordered. Run the analytics report from earlier, address more emails, and process PCard invoices in UFGO. Post the invoices in Alma, verifying prices, POLs, and vendor status, and upload the invoices to SharePoint for our Accounting team to review and pay. Email accounting to let them know another expense report is ready in UFGO.
Noon - Time for lunch! Yay, my favorite bench dedicated to Nelson Mandela is available, and I eat while reading my cozy mystery.
1:00 pm: Meet with the CSU/ERU teams and discuss ongoing projects, issues, procedures, and short and long-term goals. There are a lot of questions but some good answers too.
2:00 pm: Attend a committee meeting. I am really excited about this year's Fall Fest and the ideas everyone has for it.
Receive some more books, send some more emails, and update some things on the selector resources page on our department website. This reminds me to add some things from the last department meeting notes to my Teams planner bucket for the next department newsletter. Bring some materials going into ArchivesSpace downstairs, then take a break outside. I love working at the oldest library on campus, so pretty!
Approve Rialto Market selections in Alma. Reject some due to stock issues make a note to order elsewhere. More emails.
Spend the rest of the day creating POLS in Alma and ordering more great materials for the libraries!
