Primary queue no longer automatically monitoredPrimary queue no longer automatically monitored
• Librarian does not have to monitor their “Primary Queue”
• Instead, librarians can monitor any queue they have access to
• Allows libraries more flexibility in what services are opened or closed when scheduling librarians for chat monitoring
*24/7 Coop members: If you don’t monitor your "Primary" Queue, but do choose the 24/7 Coop check box, and your library’s queue is part of the 24/7 Cooperative for monitoring purposes, then you will still receive incoming questions from your own library’s queue. However, you will not receive the question any sooner than the rest of the cooperative members. In other words whatever 24/7 Coop rollup delay time is set will apply to you. If you choose neither your Primary, nor the 24/7 Coop, then you will not see questions from your own library’s queue.
