Elizabeth (Alaska) When an important function, like Combine, is to be taken offline for a day or more, it would be helpful to have a notification from the moderators. (And if you didn't know this was going to happen, then please request those who are in charge of this kind of activity be more communicative.)

Also, it would be helpful if there were a specific Announcement folder rather than using the General folder.


☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments especially as the General folder has so many pinned threads that no one sees the new ones easily.

and a loud yes! to the rest of Elizabeths posting.

Dobby (dobby0390) | 7859 comments Absolutely! This is a huge frustration, causing wasted time and effort.

Emily | 17526 comments Some of the announcements can probably be unpinned.

Yes, that is an alternative.

I meant as a side note :-) I misread other posts as I went through them too quickly!

+ 1 The obvious one is the previous moderator thanking Librarians.

Elizabeth (Alaska) Some of those pinned threads are librarian tools. Not sure they go in the "general" non-folder. They should have a permanent, prominent place. Or just be removed as they have been incorporated into the manual.


message 10: by Mesembryanthemum (new)

Mesembryanthemum | 195 comments +1 for the above. I would love to see a separate folder (or non-folder) for librarian-specific threads (tips and tools and announcements and policy questions). It's hard to find this information amongst the oh-so-many user requests and questions in each folder.

Sorry about that, I missed this one over the weekend. I've made an announcement and added it to the new Announcements folder.


Elizabeth (Alaska) Thanks, Jaclyn. We do appreciate your considering our suggestions.
