[CASL-L] Library Trac?

[Jessica-Lynn Johnson]

Hi Casey,

We have used Library Trac for several years and find that the cost is
minimal for what we get.  Pre-Covid, students would check into the library
during study hall.  All faculty have access to Library Trac and can see if
students have checked into the library.  We also used the data exports in
our monthly statistics and to help support the need for teachers to cover
the library as a duty.  Currently, we are limiting the number of students
in the library and use the "Pass" platform on Library Trac.  We have 30
spaces available for sign-up daily.  Students sign-up and show their study
hall teacher their confirmation before heading to the library.  This has
been beneficial for special events in the library as we can add spaces or
delete spaces easily.  Covid has led to us having more restrictions in
movement throughout our building, so Library Trac has been exceptionally
helpful in allowing us to adapt to our needs.

I hope this helps,
Jess
