Overview

Being the room coordinator means managing access, usage and maintenance of multiple spaces within the library. This involves knowledge of complex software, communication with staff across multiple departments within and outside of Valley Library, and the ability to problem solve on a moment's notice. The complexity and wide spectrum of responsibility makes it difficult to break duties down into concise categories. As a result, there will be many pages that overlap and cross-reference each other. Below is a broad outline of responsibilities.
