Channel Guide
We have different channels on Slack. Here's a guide on what to post where:
#Announcements - Be sure to check this channel as soon as you've clocked in for the day. Here is where I'll post any news or updates for the day, such as visitors coming into the building, librarians being out of the office, changes to your workday or shift, or reminders about your timesheets.
Use this channel for any announcements you have for all student employees
#To-Do - Any other tasks I have for student employees will be posted here. Once the task is done, post in this channel that it has been completed.
Use this channel for any discussion related to tasks posted there.
DM's (Direct Messages) - You can DM me or any other student employee.
Use this channel for any personal messages or conversations you need to have with me that don't pertain to other student employees.
