Circulation

Circulation refers to the checking-in (charging) and checking-out (discharging) of items in a library.


The main duty of every student employee at the LADC is to assist patrons with checking in/out and finding items as well as assisting patrons who need assistance on any technology that we provide for public use.  This entails a large amount of time staying behind the circulation desk, those student employees rotate going into the stacks to complete assigned tasks. This portion of the LADC Student Employee Guide is intended to answer all questions related to your circulation duties.
