Student Technician Weekly Statistics
This page will outline some of the statistics and tracking for USU Libraries CMS Student Technicians. Please note that additional statistics or tracking resulting from projects may also be applicable. This information may kept on the project page.
Weekly Statistics
Each week, please record statistics in the Airtable base “Student Tech Weekly Reporting”. This can be done by filling out the form individualized to each tech profile or by visiting the base and adding a new record. The following fields are available in the base/form, but please note that all are not applicable to every tech profile - and therefore not all are required. Additionally they may appear in a different order, depending on the most prominent work assigned to each tech profile.
