[CASL-L] [EXTERNAL] Re: Cohort Block Schedule and Book Checkout?

[Crean, Sue]

I’m going to have to look into reserving books through Destiny. I’ve never
used that feature. I was going to use e-mail or a google form.
 I’m fortunate that I only teach a couple classes (although I fear I will
be pulled for sub coverage into misc classes.)
They are limiting the number of classes we see. One cohort for 18 straight
days. 10 rotations for the year. Typically we have 5 rotations w A/B days.
Thanks for the ideas.
