[LM_NET] Target: Checklist for starting the year?

[Melissa Davis <mbdavis50@SUDDENLINK.NET>]

Does anyone have, or can we jointly build, a checklist of things that 
we do before the library opens each year? I'm thinking of things like:
    1. update your patron database and delete withdrawn students
    2. update the teachers in your patron database, deleting those who moved on
    3.  check in the magazine that arrived over the summer and put 
out the most recent copy of each
    4.  process any books that arrived over the summer
    5.  set up the first display / bulletin board of the year
    6.  check your supplies, making a list of those things you need more of
    7.  check for any curriculum changes that will impact your collection

You get the idea. Please send your "gotta get done before we open" 
tasks to me (not the list) and I will compile them in a HIT in a few days.

We've had several similar lists over the years for: things to do at 
the end of the year; things to do if you are retiring/leaving; things 
to do when you are new. But I can't find a list of those dull, 
technical things we all have to do to get off to a good start.
