Members Wanted for New Employee Orientation Task Force

The New Employee Orientation Task Force was started end of May to assist newly hired employees to successfully integrate and transition into the work & community culture at MU Libraries.  The Task Force initially started with SDC and DAC committee members, but this is a committee that can always benefit from the views from a variety of staff members.  If you are interested in serving on this committee, please contact Darell Schmick at 573-884-3575 or email at schmickd@health.missouri.edu. Thank you~

 

Tech Tip, Moving Emails to the Server Share

You might already be aware that we have a new server share for Outlook so now there is more room for your old emails. Here is how you can move your existing email folders to the new server share:
Right click on the folder you want to move. A menu will pop up, select “Move Folder.” Under “Move Folder” select either your email address, or your inbox (depending on where you want the new folder to show up). Click OK after you make your selection. Now the old folders will be saved on the new server share.
