Email and calendar migration

-->

You may know that our Outlook email and calendar system is running on College of Medicine servers.  COM Information Technology Services (ITS) is planning to migrate all email and calendars to UITS (main campus IT) servers over the next year.  Current plans are that AHSL will be migrated sometime this fall.  ITS is talking with UITS to find a time when both groups will be able to take this on.  We will share details as they become clear.

Planning, party and polishing

Strategic Planning

Thanks to all of you who came to the strategic planning open session on Tuesday.  As a member of the “Innovating” group I know that we are finding your comments very helpful.  As this process progresses there will be other opportunities for you to hear about our progress and to participate and to provide feedback.

Hannah’s Party

Don’t forget about Hannah’s retirement party on Monday at 10:30 on the 4th floor!

New look in the office

Remodeling projects always seem to take longer than we would like!  We are close to selecting the final layout and finishes for the new reception desk in the library office.  Once that is done we’ll still have about 60 days before installation.  At this point I’m hoping that we can see a new desk by January 1st!

AED

An automated external defibrillator (AED) has been installed on the second floor, across from the elevators, to the left of the stairway entrance.  The device, to be used to treat sudden cardiac arrest, will “speak” directions to you if you use it.  However, the DEPP committee is talking to personnel at the Sarver Heart Center about getting some training for the staff.
