Team Sarah Bellum

Hello Team

Good Luck with our presentation today. I will be in Uni several hours before our class, and will have my laptop with me anyways. So if anyone of you wants a final look at the presentation slides, you're welcome. I'll be in the library.

This probably will be my closing post regarding our project. I have enjoyed working as part of the team & have no regrets. I believe we did a fantastic job planning and designing the Sarah Bellum Information Center. Now, if only we get the chance to build it in real eh ;P

Thank you for the lovely team experience and for being such a good sport everyone. We all need a pat on the back.

cheers



PS: had heaps of fun on Quiz Night. ;)

Pics Pics and more Pics

Shaba,

Great images! I think that those will really flush out the building overview. I had a look for a good lecture ampitheatre/seminar hall/lecture hall, but to little avail. The pretty pictures were all too small or the wrong type of facility (one without tables/computers). So, I'd say lets leave those out.

Jaya/Shaba,

Thanks for the notes on Fridays lectures. I agree with the setting up of the chairs on the side. I know I am distracted easily and the shifting/shuffling of the presenters often detracted from the presentation for me. Remind me on friday after the lecture as it looks like I will be setting the equipment up again. I was surprised that Kerry didn't ask and questions (and a little disapointed as well), but I still think we should have our storyboard there. I think asking people to come up and take a look at it at the end of our presentation will be a good thing. Get thier bodies moving a little and give us time to 'show off' what we put into this experience.

Just to let all of you know; I am still fighting off the creaping crud. I think they are just worse-than-normal allergies due to the wet weather we've been having. It shouldn't impact on the presentation at all though :)

See you wednesday.

p.s. I won't be able to meet on Thursday as that is my work evening this week. Sorry! I would be able to meet before class on Friday if we need to do any last-minute type thingies.

My thoughts

Hi Jaya
The chair & laptop idea is a good one. I didn't like people hovering around either.

& You are probably right about the story board. And nobody asked questions either, not even Kerry herself. i was very suprised by that, and there we were all getting prepared with a backup slideshow & all :) oh well, just the better.

About Gantt chart, yes i think we should fit it in there. I'll bring my laptop to our meeting on Wednesday and we can do changes and additions. & also thursday 4pm works for me. :)

About a Finishing line, let's all have a think abt it as well. but the line u mentioned works too :P

And yeah, i was thinking about the floor plan. We might need one.The prob. is i dont have access to any of those software to design them, but i suppose i could draw it in Corel Draw using basic shapes. But the good news is i just found some i could tweak a bit and use. Will try and post the images as i get them done.

Cheers

The individual ganttchart

Hi everyone,
I don't have the final individual gantt chart. I had filled in my bit and emailed it to Eric. So can you guys follow through and forward the final copy to Jaya pls. :)

thanks,
cheers.

Staff Numbers - For Bruce

Hey Bruce... I found a heap of stats available for academic libraries in Australia. If we were looking at creating a library with 15,000 users, using the ratio for Curtin Uni we would need 66 staff.

Fun to play with, if you wanted to use.

Good idea

Yes. Jaya, Absolutely! Your thoughts mirrored mine.

So we'll discuss this in Next wednesday's meeting and decide, right?

Sounds like a good plan, folks.
