User Services Annual Report 2008 Page 1 Annual Report Library and Information Services – User Services June 1, 2007 – May 31, 2008 Introduction The User Services team was formed during the ’07‐’08 academic year to bring together several specific user‐related services and service points to provide a more intentional space for collaborative work to occur. Specifically this includes the current Academic Technology, Help Desk, Training, and User Systems areas. Reports from each of the four areas have been compiled into one annual report. Throughout the sections of the report, common themes occur which highlight the benefit of forming the User Services team. Some of the themes include Windows Vista, Mac OSX 10.5 Leopard, Office 2007, Office 2008 for the Mac, Summer 2008 Faculty Rollout, and Norse Key Password Expiration. These themes, and others, involve research by Academic Technology and User Systems into workstation image changes, development of Training materials for users, and support of users with individual questions through our Help Desk. Staffing The User Services team is comprised of the following ten individuals: Matthew Baumann (Help Desk Technician), Bob Erickson (Classroom/Lab Manager), Ryan Gjerde (Academic Technology Librarian), Diane Gossman (Director of User Services), Matt Hughes (Help Desk Supervisor), Todd Marken continued (User Services Specialist), Andrew Olson (Help Desk Manager), Bob Puffer (Academic Technology Assistant), Larry Sikkink (User Systems Administrator), Jim Veeder (Audio‐Visual Coordinator).

 Staff Rollout Machines for staff are upgraded year-around, and the schedule is planned such that each department will receive an upgrade every two years. The departments are divided in halves, and each half is upgraded on alternate years. These departments are upgraded on the even-odd budget years (i.e. ’07-’08):

AdministrativeServices AdmissionsOffice Alumni BookShop

CareerCenter CelebrationIowa CollegeMinistries CounselingDevelopment DiversityCenter HealthService HumanResourcesIntn'lStudies LIS(west) PostOffice Publications

PrintShop RegentsCenter ResidenceLife SportsInformationStudentLife WellnessCenter LIS‐HelpDesk(laptoppool)

Due to budget, staffing, and the prospect of buying a systems management solution reasons, the staff rollout was stalled for a portion of the ‘07-‘08 year. Only the Admissions, Alumni, Development, and LIS (west) departments were upgraded late in the academic year. The laptops harvested from those departments were used to refresh the Help Desk laptop pool. Those departments delayed will be picked up in the '08-'09 year, along with the regularly scheduled departments for that period.
