JLC Library Use at TJ

Daniel Perkes 1/6/11

It’s a bad idea to limit all computers (or all library computers?) to 20 minutes, because now instead of some people not getting computer use, now more people will get computer use but nobody will get anything done. A better idea is to set 5 or so computers aside for printing only.

Maybe in the lab you get it long enough to do something or other. Make it so that people don’t have to sign in to the printing computers.

or, just Student

Use those dividers to separate documents. On the special printing computers, you should be able to tell it what your name is.

Mrs. Carpenter said that there’s a problem with too many students in the library (during JLC). That’s a fire hazard. That’s why Mr. McCormick was standing at the door today limiting flow.

Maybe we should have a system in which students sign up for use of the library during JLC, just as we do for 8th period. That way, we could regulate how many students are in there at a time, allow students to get more done with less stress, and regulate who gets to use the library.
