SEM2 Media Cabinets

If you hear trash TV leaking through the system then the user before you left the VCR on a certain channel; press Zero on the VCR remote to switch the system to a neutral line.

If you are rewinding or forwarding a VCR tape, use the remote. The dial on the VCRs is for rewind, forward, and changing the channel. It is very easy to change the channel when you think you are rewinding or fast forwarding, and the results can be really confusing.

Sometimes people take the batteries out of the remotes. If you are pressing and pressing the buttons and nothing is happening - check the remote to see if it still has batteries.

Banner Self Service for Faculty

2007-01-03T02:36:29Z

Curtzt:

You get a password for the Gateway web registration system (aka Banner) by filling out the web page at:

http://www.evergreen.edu/gateway/ferpa.shtm

The registrar sends you an email password the next day. Then you can login to the faculty information section of the Banner system at https://bannerweb.evergreen.edu/pls/prod/twbkwbis.P_WWWLogin. There's a introductory flyer for faculty at:

http://www.evergreen.edu/gateway/facultyguide.pdf

(However, it doesn't tell you that Mac users need Internet Explorer or Netscape 7 if they want to paste informeation from the Custom Class Lists option directly into Excel, since it unfortunately puts pasted tables from Safari and Firefox all into one column.)

Once you login, you have to choose a term and a course number at the top of your menu to start - then you can see various information about the students registered in your class and on your wait list, enter overrides for the registration limits you've set up to do things like allow a sophomore into your Junior/Senior program, etc.

There are buttons on these pages to send e-mail to an individual student and (at the very bottom) to the whole class. If you create an e-mail to the whole list with this button, it puts the addresses into the BCC: line to send each student a blind carbon copy, which doesn’t show any other addresses, in case some students have said they want their information kept confidential. You put your own address in the To: line, and then each student will get a copy of the message, but it will not show any other addresses but yours. Unfortunately, that also means students can’t send messages to everybody in a program by hitting Reply All with a message like this. (See below for the other email option – a listserv list.)

The Custom Class List and Custom Class Waitlist items on your Banner web menu produce tables with the information from the registration database in the order you select - in particular you can get just student names and/or the email addresses they gave Banner as their preferred email when they registered. (The college also gives each student an @evergreen.edu account, and has been trying to get students to use them, but only about 20% of the students ever look at those.) You can select, copy and paste your tables of names and/or emails into Word or Excel to get started making class lists, etc. (Mac users need Internet Explorer or Netscape 7 if they want to do this directly, since Excel puts pasted tables from Safari and Firefox all into one column.)

Sidenote for Excel users - (If you know a little about Excel, or email me for more details, you can use a word processor to replace some commas or spaces in what you get from Banner with tabs, then import that tabbed file into Excel and use a formula to get the last names in front of the first names, etc....)

If you ask Lorri Moore (moorel@evergreen.edu) to set it up for you, Banner also lets you check the current state of your program budget.

Problems:

1. You must have a student's A........ number to enter an override yourself. (It looks as if you can also do a search by name, but at this point the name search is limited to students who are already registered in your program.)

Library Accounts

2006-11-23T23:22:33Z

Curtzt: /* '''Community Borrowers''' */

[[Category:Library Technologies]]
==='''Students, Faculty, and Staff'''===

Evergreen '''automatically creates''' a library user/borrower account for students, faculty, and staff who join the college. Your '''library card''' is your current Evergreen ID. The first time you use your library card, folks at the Circulation Desk will request that you show an additional ID and confirm your contact information.

Account holders may borrow from the library's '''physical collections''' - books, maps, cds, dvds, and other stuff - and use '''online services'''. Online services include searching the [http://www2.evergreen.edu/wikis/itsurvivalguide/index.php?title=Library_Catalog catalog], reserving materials, and accessing subscription [[Databases | databases]] of academic literature.

Some online services are password protected, including subscription databases when used off campus. Your full name and registration number, exactly as they appear on your ID card, count as your '''username and password''' in all library account matters.

Accounts are '''audited every six months'''. Accounts for users who remain at the college are renewed; those who have left are dropped. Our beloved '''emeritus faculty''' retain their institutional accounts throughout retirement.

==='''Community Borrowers'''===

Those without an official affiliation with Evergreen may establish a community borrower's account. '''Necessary identification''' includes a photo ID and a document that shows a current address - a personal check, phone bill, etc. Community borrowers may borrow '''books but not tapes, cds, or dvds'''. You can also use a card from the Washington State Library or Saint Martin's College (but not a Timberland Library card).

Community users may temporarily access subscription databases from computers within the library. Community accounts '''do not expire'''.

==='''Extended Education Students'''===

EE does not involve admission to the college. EE students may establish and use library accounts as '''community borrowers'''.

'''Questions About Your Account'''

You can [http://cals.evergreen.edu/patroninfo view your account online] or call the Circulation Desk at 360-867-6250.

===Periodical Literature===
Our library subscribes to numerous databases containing scholarly journal articles, journalism and press, and multimedia news & info formats. They are indexed alphabetically at:

If you want to do more than the little toolbar above the edit screen will let you, there's a fairly detailed help page on Wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Advanced_editing#Links. (It has further links, to more than you will ever want to know.)

'''Beginner's help:'''

To get a single carriage return, you can put a space at the beginning of each line, which creates a dotted box around your block of text, or just put <nowiki> </nowiki> at the end of each line where you want one.

To make a link to somewhere else in the wiki, highlight the text that you want linked, then click the Ab button on the toolbar to set the link up, then save the page, and then click on the linked text to jump to the new empty page and add whatever you want to there.

To make a link to somewhere else on the Internet, you can just put the URL into your text - you have to have http:// in front of it, though. To get a piece of your text highlighted and linked to somewhere else on the Internet, click the icon with the globe; then replace the <nowiki>"http://www.example.com"</nowiki> it creates with the URL you want, and replace the "link title" it creates with the text you want to use as the link. (Of course, you could just type this yourself - you need an opening square bracket followed by your URL, then a space, then the text you want to use for the link, then a closing square bracket.)

To add an image, you click on the little picture icon in the toolbar and then replace the Example.jpg part of the tag it creates in this edit pane with the name of the image file you want to display. Then you click on the Upload file item in the Toolbox menu over in the left margin to get a window that lets you upload the image from your machine. (You can do these steps in the other order too, of course.

To keep some piece of HTML markup that you want to discuss in a help section like this from staying hidden and producing changing the markup instead of appearing so you can discuss it, put <nowiki><nowiki></nowiki> in front of it and <nowiki></nowiki></nowiki> after it.

'''Safari login problem''' -

If you try to login with Safari, you'll get an long error message. Hit the Back button. You'll get another error message. Hit the Back button again. Now you're on the page where you began. Click login again - and magic, you actually are logged in!

(You can do these steps in the other order too, of course.

Once you have an Evergreen account set up, go to:

https://my.evergreen.edu/selfserve/logon.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2fselfserve%2fauthed%2fDefault.aspx

It takes up to a day for the process.

'''Managing your website using an FTP (File Transfer Protocol) program'''

Some programs now have built in FTP utilities to let you ship pages and images to your website, but you may want to use a more powerful separate FTP program like Fetch, for Macs:
http://www.fetchsoftworks.com/
You can apply for the free educational password at http://www.fetchsoftworks.com/Licensing/edustore.application.html

Or WSFTP, for Windows:

The basic information you need to configure any FTP program (or the Publish to Web feature of a bigger program) to communicate with your website is at:

http://www.evergreen.edu/netservices/Web/publishftp.htm

[[Detailed instructions for setting up Fetch]] are available.

'''Direct editing by connecting to a network file share''' -
''If'' (and only if) you're on campus, you can also connect to your web directory on the network and just deal with the files directly, as if they were on some other disk drive connected to your machine. See instructions for [http://www.evergreen.edu/netservices/Web/netsharewindows.htm connecting a Windows machine], and for [http://www.evergreen.edu/netservices/Web/netsharemac.htm connecting a Mac].

Fetch - Detailed setup instructions

Curtzt:

You want to set up a shortcut for logging on to your Evergreen web account, so you don't have to type in the same information every time. So start Fetch and choose "New Shortcut" off the customize menu to get the New Shortcut dialogue box:

[[Image:Fetch1_copy.jpg]]

<ul>
<li>The Name field can say whatever you please, like My Evergreen Website.</li>
<li>In the Host field, make sure the correct site is specified (e.g. www.evergreen.edu for student personal web pages or academic.evergreen.edu for faculty or curricular ones.)</li>
<li>In the User ID field specify specify your evergreen.edu user name. (.e.g. metzlerd or greima20)</li>
<li>In the Password field, specify your evergreen.edu account password</li>
<li>The Directory field needs whatever is needed after what's in the Host field to complete the address of the directory/folder that your home page is in. For example, suppose you have a home page at http://academic.evergreen.edu/c/curtzt/index.htm, and your Host field reads academic.evergreen.edu, then the Directory field should say /c/curtzt/<li>
<li>Press OK.</li>

Now if you start Fetch, or choose New Connection off the File menu you should be able to pull down the Shortcuts menu in the bottom left corner and choose whatever name you assigned to this shortcut to get a window with all your login information filled out.

'''Basic Fetch Tips''' -

<ul><li>You can move and delete whole directories, and rename files, with choices on the Remote menu.</li>
<li>You don't need to specify file types when you're doing a transfer - "Auto" is the default setting and Fetch will figure out if you need a binary transfer or not.</li></ul>

'''Bookmarklets''' let you do things like click a button or choose a bookmark when you are looking at a book on Amazon and automatically look it up in Evergreen's catalog, or in the Timberland catalog, or automatically create an email with the information for a purchase request that you can then edit and send to Shelly Swelland, who handles this for our library. (swellands@evergreen.edu). Faculty can also use these to create an email with a list of books and ordering information to send to Wendy Sorrell in the bookstore and Penny Hinojosa in SEM II to order texts and desk copies for a program. The bookmarklet scripts and information about using them are available at http://academic.evergreen.edu/c/curtzt/TESCBookmarklets.html.

'''Saving bibliographic information about the books from the catalog''' 
The Booklist button on our catalogue pages and the Export button on Summit search pages let you save information about books you look up, and then display the list and copy or print it, save it to disk, or email it in various formats including Pro-Cite or End-Note. (If you have a list, the Export List or Export BookCart buttons appear on the pages.) (The Full Display option’s the only one with the call number – unfortunately, it contains a lot you probably don’t care about too.)

Click the green '''Summit''' button right above the area for typing in your search information (or over on the right of the page for a particular book) to go from looking up a book in our catalog to looking it up in the huge catalogue through which we share our collection with a couple of dozen institutions, and requesting a copy if ours is checked out or we don’t own it. Courier delivery to the circulation hold shelf takes three days to a week or so; they notify you by email if you’ve set up your personal information in the web catalog to request that.

If you click '''the Request button''' while you're looking at the entry for a book, the Library will get it off the shelf for you; then you can pick your books up at the Circulation Desk the next day (if you aren't in a hurry, and don't mind missing the chance to browse while you're looking for them on the shelves yourself).

'''Printing on both sides of the page from your Mac

If you're using OSX in SEM 2 –

Start to print in the usual way, but when this dialog box comes up, don’t click “Print” right away.

[[Image:MacPresets1.gif]]

Pull down the menu that says “Copies and Pages” and choose “Layout”. You get the dialogue box that's shown next. (If the Two-Sided option is greyed out on your machine, you need to probably [[need to install the driver for the particular printer you want to use]], rather than the generic one that's been installed on your machine.-

[[Image:MacPresets2.gif]]

Click on "Long-edged binding" under Two-Sided:". Then pull down the “Presets” menu right above “Layout” and choose “Save As…” from the bottom part. You get this:

[[Image:MacPresets3.gif]]

Give this collection of settings a name, like “SEM2BothSides” and save it. Now that name should appear as an option on the “Presets” menu, so you can choose it any time in one step.

Let me know if this doesn’t work for you, or you’d like two minutes help setting it up.
