IT has requested that all users close any running programs and log off their computers at the end of the work day.

and the winners are...

Staff who participated in Staff Development Day received a Technology Passport with instructions that if he or she scanned and e-mailed the passport to Paul, they would be entered for a chance to win one of three $10 gift cards.  The day has arrived to announce the lucky winners of our drawing:
1.  Ramona Pierce
2.  Tara Greene
3.  Judy Page
Congratulations and thank you to everyone who participated.  Winners may pick up gift cards at the circulation desk at Headquarters, or contact Melody (x8230) to have your card sent to you at the branches.  If you haven't already done so, please complete our quick anonymous survey.

staff development day survey

A week ago, Staff Development Day was held at the South Branch.  The planning committee is following up with an anonymous survey that will help us further understand our staff’s exposure to technology and areas of technology in which you are interested in receiving training.

Don’t forget that your passport scans are due to Paul (paul.birkhead@rowancountync.gov) by 10:00 am this Friday (Dec 20th).  We will draw three winners for the $10 Tinseltown Movie Theater gift cards (courtesy of the Friends) and winners will be announced by 5:00 pm on Friday here on the Staff News blog.  Be sure to check back then to see if you’ve won and how to collect your gift card!
