volunteer applications

If a patron wants to volunteer at the library and is at least 16 years old, please have them fill out a volunteer application and background check. Send completed forms to Melody with any notes regarding what they are looking to do, if you feel they would be a good volunteer, etc. All volunteer applications have to be approved by the county before we can set up volunteer times.  Applications can be found on Commons - N:\Volunteer\volunteer with background check.pdf

wi-fi boost

From Edward:
The wireless access points are being upgraded over the next few days (South should already have this, East on 03/21, and HQ early next week).  "rowannc-wifi" will replace "rowanncguest" and "rowan-static".  Public users will see a splash screen and "static" users will bypass that page automatically.  We are hopeful that our patrons will soon be able to print wirelessly from their laptops.
