- Go to Hours in Open Room.
- In the hours function, set all rooms to be open 24 hours for the Friday, Saturday, and Sunday between dead and finals week.
- In the cleaning function, set all rooms to be "cleaned" (closed) from 3 AM - 10 AM for the Friday and Saturday between dead and finals week.
- This is a good time to also set the cleaning hours for the rooms for dead and finals week.
- Double check your work by looking at the schedule on those dates on the Front Page.
- Alternatively, if you accidentally set the cleaning hours first, you can go back and add an additional line on the hours page. Set all the rooms to be open 24 hours for that weekend and then check the front page. It should show the rooms as closed from 3-10 am but open the rest of the time.
Setting Summer Hours
During the summer, when things are quieter, we unlock the 5th floor study rooms using the auto unlock feature in Schlage SMS. If a patron finds a 5th floor room empty, they are allowed to use it without checking out a key for as long as they want. 5th floor rooms cannot be reserved ahead of time. Only 1st floor rooms. To prevent someone from placing an advanced reservation for a 5th floor, we need to make them unavailable (or closed) in Open Room.
