Re: Archives closing for lunch



We used to cover the lunch hour by rotating staff so that the
Department was open 8-5.    After our staff was reduced, we
adopted a new schedule of 8-12, 12:30-4:30.    Granted the
thirty minutes for lunch is not much, but we decided the hour
for lunch was too long (both for staff and also for patrons who
pop in briefly during THEIR lunch hour).    The reason for the
four-hour segments is that it helps balance our schedules in
four-hour blocks.

We have had some users who didn't like having to leave
at 12...but they don't mind that it is 30 minutes as they can
go elsewhere in the library.
