Automatically Unlocking Doors for Summer Term
The 5th floor study rooms may be the most feasible floor for the summer unlock due to its not having any media technology in any of the rooms.
Instructions:
- Inform the Circulation Supervisor of your decision to unlock the study rooms on the designated floor.
- Make sure the rooms on the selected floor have no bookings. Take them out of circulation by making them “Not Available” and suppress the records by selecting “NOT ORBIS/SUPP”. Pull keys from drawer and store them at the study room coordinator’s desk.
- In Locknetics, follow the instructions below for programming the doors to be unlocked.
