d. Discuss transit slip pilot (for transit only and/or transit/hold slip)

i. Discuss possible time frame for transit slip pilot, educational information to be provided to all libraries during this period and their options.  How screen will look, what libraries can do at each library, does this impact their workflow?

e. Discuss possible “no Post-It note study”

i. Discuss the “no Post-it note study” and what the particular parameters are

f. Discuss potential costs differences between using Post-it notes and receipt paper.

i. We will probably have good data after the transit slip pilot to provide some information i.e. how many slips were printed vs using Post-its; estimated costs per type, etc.  How many rolls of receipt paper does a library go through in a week just printing hold slips, payment receipts and checkout slips?  And did that significantly increase during the transit slip pilot?
