This part of the assignment is about Library
of Congress call numbers and requires you to complete an
online training program called LC Easy.
Although this program is normally used to train student
library workers, it is being used in this course because
it offers a clear explanation of call numbers and call number
order.
Please follow these directions:
IMPORTANT: I recommend that you read
through these directions before starting LC Easy.
In fact, you may want to print out these directions because
you won't be able to return to these instructions once you
start the program.
IMPORTANT:
The LC Easy program cannot be accessed from home.
You must use the computers at Skyline Library.
- Go to Table A in the library. (This is the table to
the right of the Reference Desk as you enter the library.)
- You can use any of the 6 computer workstations at Table
A. However, if you choose workstations A1, A2, or A3,
you must first log in with your library card number. You
are allowed 2 hours at these workstations.
If you choose workstations A4, A5, or A6, you are allowed
to log in as a visitor (no card number is necessary) --
but you are only allowed
30 minutes. (LC Easy should not take
longer than 30 minutes. However, to avoid being timed
out, you may want to be at A1, A2, or A3.)
- On the desktop taskbar, you will see an icon that pictures
a small row of books. Point to it and you will see the
words "LC Easy" appear.
- Click on the LC Easy
icon.
- The screen will go black for a moment while the program
is loading.
- If a message appears alerting you to "insufficient
memory to run this program," simply click on "OK."
- At the opening screen for LC Easy, click
on "continue" and follow the
directions for logging in. When it asks what department
you work in, please type "LSCI 100."
- After clicking on "continue," you will be
presented with a list of 3 options. Choose "Begin
Lesson."
- Follow the on-screen directions for the entire lesson.
- When you reach the end of the lesson, you will be presented
with 3 choices. Choose "Print Certificate".
A print dialog window will appear. Click on OK.
- A second box will appear: "Print Control for the
Desktop." The cursor is flashing in the box labelled
Client ID. Type your initials in this
box and click on "Print document."
- Release your print job from the "Print Release
Station" at the end of Table B using your Pinnacle
vend card.
- Turn in your certificate of completion to the librarian
at the Reference desk. Lesson
5 is not considered finished until this certificate is
received.
- After printing your certificate, click on "Quit."
Thank you!
