Overview

Multiple, but not all, aspects of the classrooms are managed by the Classroom Coordinator. Unlike some of the other spaces in Valley Library, classroom management is a cooperative effort between multiple departments. Areas of classroom management include:

  • Reservations
  • Electronic lock management
  • Circulation of key cards
  • Technology
  • Signage
  • Policy

Additionally, because each classroom serves a different need, how management responsibilities are assigned is unique to each classroom. While there is some crossover, there are also many differences. Understanding how a classroom is used makes it easier to understand how it is managed. To see a detailed breakdown of how each room is managed, please refer to the Classroom ManagementReservations Coordinator wiki page.
