About:
Create a Framework for Scheduling Success
Academic & School Libraries
We all make errors. Forgetting that several workstudies can't work during finals week or that your coworker Tim is already scheduled to staff the reference desk and can't also handle online chat.
This webinar will cover LibStaffer features that reduce middle manager errors and general scheduling confusion in Academic & School Libraries.
30 minute webinar will cover:
- Setting up a scheduling system with lots of failsafes so that scheduling and resolving conflicts is easy for everyone.
- Auto-scheduler features that take the guesswork out of scheduling dozens of workstudy students with variable schedules.
- Time-clocks to ensure workstudies are actually working their scheduled shifts.
- Hierarchical position structures and robust reporting to make sure the correct managers are informed of schedule changes.
- SMS-Messaging sends updates to Gen-Z of their upcoming shifts.
- ... and more!
