- maybe we could use a wiki page with a calendar on it for the reservations. People could fill in their own name on certain dates.
- would there be a way to use our event registration system on Wordpress to handle these staff loans?
- who would be responsible for erasing it on return? maybe each person does it themselves... we give them an instruction sheet.
- who would be responsible for setting it up fresh for the next person?
- what happens if they return it late?
- can we send auto-reminders? mail-to-the-future system?
- it would be good if they know who the next person is, so they know who the next person is who is counting on it.
- what if someone decides not to borrow it when they reserved it?
- where do we keep these? should Joanne be the keeper? a special locked cabinet in UX/Barker space? Maybe Tuesdays could be the return day, since Joanne is in UX on Tuesdays.
- If we begin Dec. 7-21, then there are the following slots:
Dec. 21 - Jan 4 (does it matter over the furlough?)
Jan. 4 - 18
Jan. 18 - Feb. 1
Feb. 1 - 15
Feb. 15 - Mar. 1
Mar. 1 - 15
Mar. 15 - 29
Mar. 29 - April 12
April 12 - 26
April 26 - May 10
May 10 - 24
Stop at that point and evaluate how it's going. - That adds up to 12 slots. If we have 2 iPads and 2 Kindles (or 1 Kindle, 1 Nook), then there are 4 devices. That gives 48 staff a chance to borrow something.
