Contact HelpDesk via website

Link for emailing the Helpdesk DIRECTLY from the web, without having to use email. This is because a recurring problem (that is taking exceedngly too long to fix) is occuring. A number of people can’t log into their webmail middlebury address so they have no concrete way fo contacting the helpdesk from the coputers. And therefore they have no way to immediately communicate the continuation of the problem to support. When we call, we are asked “are you at a computer now?” Therefore, it seems a necessity to have a direct communication other than webmail to the helpdesk.

Link to library hours

Is there a link to library hours? If so what is it? If not my suggestion is that one be created with hours for all libraries.
Thanks,

Link to course descriptions from course schedule page

it would be nice if you could get to the course descriptions straight from the course schedule page. At the moment, when you click the CRN of a course on the page it takes you to a BannerWeb page labeled “Class Schedule Listing.” Could the course descriptions that are on the various academic department pages be linked or pasted into this BannerWeb page?

Add a street address to “Campus Maps” page

Let’s add a street address for Middlebury College to our “Campus Maps” page so that visitors can enter the address into their car’s GPS. The St Michael’s map does this.

Return the go directory

One of the suggestions we got from a survey attached to the LIS eNewsletter was to have an article about the “go dictionary” but now I see that it has been discontinued.

Provide a form on the MC Libraries website to report a missing book.

Broken link on archives page

I’m intrigued by your archives, but get an error message when I click the links:

Error looking up collection %2Farchstud

I tried in both IE and Firefox and received the same error. Thanks!

Make ‘go’ links easier to find

Carrie Macfarlane — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 16:42:32 +0000

When possible, add a note with the appropriate go/ short-cut to the headers of pages with go/ links, so folks will know how to get there again.
Create an easy to find reverse gotionary–and, possibly category directory–of go/links, with all the items that currently have go/links. Sometimes it’s difficult to figure out what the go/ link could be.
