Name Badges ready to order! Pre-order deadline August 11

submitted by davenpoj@augsburg.edu

New Augsburg University name badges are now ready to pre-order! You must place your order by 4 PM Friday, August 11 in order to receive it the last week in August. Badges ordered by August 11 will cost $5. If you miss this pre-order deadline, you can order anytime and your badge will cost $8 and be delivered the week following your order (in September or thereafter).

The order site is where it always has been: Inside Augsburg>A to Z Directory>Central Services>On Line ordering>Business Cards, Letterhead, Envelopes, Name Badges>Name Badges. Please complete your order all the way through checkout – don’t leave items in the cart; we all share the same cart!

Badges come in magnet and pin back styles. There are one-line, two-line, and three-line options, plus a special three-line option for those students and alumni who put their grad year on the badge (for example ’14). Don’t worry that on the proof your grad year seems too far to the right, it will print next to your name.

Please encourage your co-workers to order their badges by the pre-order deadline and order badges for your student workers. Please direct questions to the Copy Center at 612-330-1054.

New Copiers Installed Week of August 14

submitted by davenpoj@augsburg.edu

New copiers will be installed around campus the week of August 14. If you have a Canon copier in your area, it will be replaced by a Sharp copier. I think you will like the pull-out keyboard (in addition to the touchscreen) if you scan to other e-mail addresses and add a subject or notes to your scan. I think you will also appreciate the ease of using your fob to access the copier rather than entering a code, and having a one-touch button to scan to your e-mail. Training will be provided at the machine as soon as it is installed. You can share that training with others in your area who are not available or call the Copy Center at x1054 afterward to schedule follow-up training.

Installation schedule:
Monday, August 14 – Christensen Center, Urness, Mortensen
Tuesday, August 15 – Lindell Library, Oren Gateway Center
Wednesday, August 16 – Anderson Hall, Memorial Hall
Thursday, August 17 – Science, Sverdrup
Friday, August 18 – Foss, Music, Si-Melby, Kennedy, Ice Arena, Luther Seminary, and Rochester

Note that the Copy Center will be getting new machines too, so there may be a time early in the week where response time to your copy requests may be delayed.

Library open house Friday afternoon

submitted by holleric@augsburg.edu

Ever wondered how the library creates digital collections? Have you heard about our institutional repository and wondered just what a repository is? Then mark your calendar and stop by Lindell Library this Friday, August 11 between 3:00 and 5:00 PM. Step inside our digitization lab and see how we preserve Auggie history through the ages. Learn all about Idun, Augsburg’s own institutional repository, and how you can use Idun to disseminate everything from faculty publications to student research to events such as convocations, theatrical productions, or musical performances. This is also your chance to meet the newest member of the library team, Stewart Van Cleve, Digital Archivist and Research Services Librarian.

Food and beverages will be served.
