| contents | ALIS Training Manual for Circulation Department. Moreland, Rachel S. Academic Libraries Computer Assisted Instruction Guidelines Higher Education Individualized Instruction Library Automation Library Circulation Library Materials On the Job Training Policy Position Papers This training manual teaches library personnel how to use ALIS (the Automated Library Information System) at Kansas State University. The exercises use a program called TEST, which is completely separate from the actual system. The exercises, which are designed to imitate real-life situations, combine learning the ALIS operations with learning the library's circulation policies and procedures. Much of the instruction is self-directed, but trainers are available to answer questions. Small paper "books" used throughout the manual are photocopies of books the library owns, and the computer-read labels are the same as those used in all library materials. Each section ends with a sheet of directions that give step-by-step instructions for getting that section ready for the next trainee. The six-part manual covers: (1) Introduction to Hardware; (2) Discharge; (3) Media Types Identification; (4) Charging on ALIS; (5) Renewals; and (6) Inquiry. (THC) |
