FACILITIES & OPERATIONS

Location: Maintenance Compound
Hours:
Monday - Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Phones:

Facilities Operation: 707-527-4231
Grounds: 707-524-1611
Custodial Service: 707-527-4205

How to Obtain Services: Routine services may be obtained by completing a Service Request form specifying the name of the building or area, the room number, the precise request or problem, and your name and phone number. Due to heavy demand and limited staff, not all routine maintenance will be completed right away. If your request is for new construction, it should be sent to the Director of Facilities for appropriate review and processing. Matters which relate to the health or safety of students or staff or which have an impact on instructional effectiveness are given top priority (see below).

Emergency Service: Emergencies, including health and safety hazards or imminent damage to facilities or property, should be reported to the Facilities Operations office immediately at 527-4231. After hours, report emergencies to the District Police 524-1000.
Keys: Key can be obtained by submitting a Key Request Form (see listing in Handbook). Keys may be picked up at the District Police Office.

Heating, Air Conditioning, and Exterior Lighting: The campus’ heating and air conditioning units and exterior lighting are controlled by a computerized energy management system. All spaces are conditioned according to schedule operation. For adjustments to the regular schedule, the Facilities Operations Department requires at least two days notice. A HVAC request form is required. To request form contact Violet Wilder, either email vwilder@santarosa.edu or phone (527-4231).

Special Events Set-Up: Requests for special events set-up must be submitted on a Service Request Form and must be received by the Facilities Operations Office at least three days before the event is to take place. Care should be taken to provide precise information regarding the set-up, including exact location, diagram, exact number of tables, chairs, etc., date and time of event, date and time event is over, and special requirements. Note that while setup and takedown is done by the Custodial staff, delivery and pickup of chairs and tables is done by the Warehouse. Therefore, two services requests are usually necessary – one for delivery and pickup of tables/chairs (for the Warehouse staff) and one for setup and takedown (for the Custodial staff).

Vehicle Requests: Use of District vehicles is granted only upon completion of a written request (see Request For Use of Santa Rosa Junior College Vehicle form) which must be approved by the Department Chair or supervisor. Scheduling is on a first-come, first-serve basis. If your plans change and the vehicle is no longer needed, it is imperative that you inform the Facilities Operations Office so that vehicles may be rescheduled. Keys, trip cards, and credit cards are obtained in the Facilities Operations office. Note: Anyone planning to use a district vehicle must first have driver clearance through the District Police Office. This requires completion of a Drivers Clearance Card (obtained from District Police), which is then submitted to DMV. Upon DMV clearance, District Police will then initial and forward the clearance to Facilities Operations for vehicle use records. Be aware that it can take several weeks to complete this process through DMV.

The majority of financial aid programs are based on financial need, which is determined by the Financial Aid Office from information submitted by the student and/or family on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). These applications should to be completed by March prior to each academic year but are accepted all year long.

Work Order Forms: Fill out the Printing Work Order form for all jobs, including self-service copying. The budget code must be complete. Where the form states “deliver to,” specify one of the fifteen delivery points on the Graphic Services route where you want your completed work to be delivered or held (ex: Bailey Hall Mail Room).

Ordering Books and Periodicals: The faculty is encouraged to make recommendations for improving the library’s collection. To make a recommendation, obtain a Book Request Form from the library. Book requests received from faculty are given high priority. Books and periodicals can be ordered for office, classroom, and lab usage. Contact your department chair about this process.

Borrowing Books and Periodicals: In order to borrow books from the library, please bring your faculty or staff identification card with you. (To obtain a card, see listing for Identification Card.) Reference books are not generally loaned. Periodicals are to be used in the library.

Reserve Desk
What can be placed on Reserve?
Items that can be put on Reserve include, but are not limited to, books from the library collection, textbooks (either instructor’s personal copies or those ordered through the library), as well as photocopied excerpts from books or periodicals, lecture notes, old exams, and examples of research papers. Reserve materials are generally in high demand and are circulated for short periods to allow access by many students.

What are the loan periods available?
Two hour – Library Use Only
Four hour – can be taken out of the library
One day – due 24 hours from time checked out
Three day – due 72 hours from time checked out

The person placing the material on Reserve decides the loan period. However, photocopied material generally has the 2 hour Library Use Only loan period. If a text comes with a CD-Rom, it will be kept with the book and therefore have the same loan period as the text.

How is material placed on Reserve?
Check in the library OPAC to see if the book is in the library collection or bring your own copy to place on Reserve. (Note: your personal copy will be returned to you when withdrawn from Reserve. The library is not responsible for the replacement of personal copies that are damaged, lost, or stolen.) Books that are not in the collection can be ordered by contacting either the Acquisitions Department, 527-4553, or the Reserve Desk, 527- 4758. Please allow a three-day lead time for the library to process personal copies or items purchased from the bookstore. If a book is not in the bookstore and needs to be ordered through a publisher, it could take 2 or 3 months to acquire it. The library cannot purchase “answer-key” type books.

The library does not make photocopies. The instructor placing the material on Reserve is required to make the copies beforehand. CD-ROMs can be placed on Reserve. However, the library does not have the equipment to support them, so a one or three day loan period is required.

What are the Reserve copyright guidelines?
The Reserve Department can place photocopied materials on Reserve for one semester only without copyright permission. At the end of the semester the material will be removed from Reserve unless copyright permission has been received from the instructor placing the item on Reserve. (Examples of letters requesting permission are available from Reserve.) Chapters of books and articles from newspapers and/or magazines can be placed on Reserve. The Reserve Department will monitor the length of materials to insure they do not constitute a major portion of a work. The “notice of copyright” stamp must be placed on the first page of each copy along with full bibliographic information. Each item placed on Reserve can have one copy only. Class “readers” cannot be placed on Reserve due to copyright restrictions.

What is required of students & staff to use the Reserve Desk?
A valid SRJC I.D. card along with the call number of the item requested.

Circulation of Materials and Equipment

Delivery Requests: Delivery requests can be made in person, by phone, or in writing. Requests should be placed at least a day in advance. If a student will be authorized to pick up or deliver materials, Media Services must be notified by the instructor. On-campus delivery and pick up is usually performed by student workers on an hourly basis ten minutes before class starting time.

Video Equipment: Over 125 rooms contain complete video set-up. If yours doesn’t, you will need to obtain one from Media Services. Due to security problems, video players, video cameras, and TV monitors will not be delivered. These must be picked up and returned at Media Services by faculty or a designee. To ensure equipment availability, advance reservations are strongly recommended.

Available Media: Media Services has a collection of over 7500 titles, ( includes VHS tapes, DVD's and 16 mm films) which are available for checkout to instructors. A catalog of media titles and descriptions is online and available at Media Services . Generally, media may be checked out for 24 hours during the busy months of the semester. If more time is needed, please inform Media Services. Explore the online media catalog online.

Student Use of Media Materials: Students may view or listen to media in the library as arranged for specific class assignments or by the special request of their instructors. Students may check out compact discs and audio cassettes. There are over 1300 CDs in the collection. The Circulation counter will also duplicate instructional audio tapes for students. Instructors may reserve audio cassettes of lectures for their students to obtain a copy on their own blank cassette tapes (non-copyrighted materials only, please). Students may not check out films or video tapes. An instructor can authorize students to do research or extra credit viewing. In order to view a video, the student must know the exact title to be viewed, the instructor’s name, and the course number. Video tapes have a limited life; it is preferred that only “make-up” viewing be allowed. There are 11 carrels in the Library where students may view assigned media. Viewing for entertainment is not allowed.

Viewing Rooms: The Media Services Circulation desk also handles the scheduling of one presentation room and two conference rooms in the Plover Library. Room reservations can be made up to four months in advance by faculty or staff.

Production of Instructional Materials

Media Services Production: Production includes the video taping of lectures, on-campus events, and in-house studio productions. The departmental supply budget will be charged for supplies and materials. Check with your department to determine if approvals are necessary. Please allow at least 5 days for audio/visual duplication, and 10 days advance notice for lecture taping requests.

Photo and Presentation Graphics Production: A wide variety of photographic and graphic services is provided to enhance class presentations, including 35 mm slide production/duplication, development of slide synchronized presentations and programs designed for use with slide dissolve systems. Completion time for work orders is 7-21 days. Please allow adequate time for your request to be completed.

“Off Air”/“Off Sat” Video Taping: Instructors may request “off-air” video taping directly from television. These requests should be received at least 24 hours in advance. After the program has been taped, the instructor may pick it up from Media Services. It may be used once in each class for 10 days, and then can be held for 35 more calendar days for review on a departmental level for purchase. Following this period, the tape must be returned to Media Services for erasure (if no purchase will occur) or Media Services will hold the video while researching purchase information.

Acquisition of Audio Visual Materials and Equipment

Media: Media titles are selected by instructors with departmental approval. If two or more departments preview materials and then decide upon purchase, the cost is divided among the departments and Media Services.When collection funds are used, the purchase order for media materials must be processed by Media Services and the media materials are housed in one of the College Libraries. If departments plan to house media materials at their department, funds would come from the department budget and would be processed with their own purchase order.

Maintenance, Repair, and Installation of Equipment

Equipment Maintenance, Repair and Installation: The technical staff of Media Services are responsible for the proper operation of media equipment. If a malfunction occurs during class, phone for immediate assistance. Media Technicians are also available to train faculty in the operation of media equipment for a specific room configuration.

Equipment: Media Services works with departments to specify types of equipment needed, outlining parameters and assisting during the capital equipment budget cycle. After funds are approved Media Services coordinates all details related to acquisition and installation of the equipment.

Like other community colleges, SRJC offers ‘lower division’ (freshman and sophomore) General Education and major preparation courses equivalent to those at a university. After transfer, the student will complete the‘upper division’ (junior and senior courses) and graduate from the university.
