with the department guidelines.

assigned a mailbox in the Mailroom, (AD 101). Your chair needs to fill
out the Key Issue card and return to
Physical Plant, AD 317 and request a mailbox from Administration
office (AD 218).

Books N’ More, the LACC Bookstore. Purchase desk copies from the bookstore if
you do not already have one. The bookstore personnel will explain how
you can order one directly from the publisher or be reimbursed for the
copies that you purchase. You may want to contact the publishers of your
books to acquire any supplemental accompaniments for your texts.
8. You need to bring your letter of assignment (or hire) your
employee ID card aka Cub Card (which is also your copy card and faculty
& staff parking access card). Check out the
Informational Technology department website and carefully read the
IT OVERVIEW and these topics: Email; Employee ID Card; ETUDES;
Faxes; LACC Websites; Manuals; Network Logon; Parking; Academic Network;
Roster & Grades; Software; Telephone Directory; Telephone; and Voice
Mail.
9. The
employee should have a proof of their assignment and car information
before coming to fill out the parking form. Go to the Physical Plant
office (AD 317), fill out a parking form, then go to the
Business Office (AD 111) to pay a $15 fee, ($4 of which is
refundable). Return to Physical Plant office with the receipt to receive
the permit. If the employee has not yet received an employee number, he
or she should return to the Plant Facilities office after it has been
established to pick up their information card and take it to IT office
(AD 107) in order to receive their Cub card.
10. You need to return to campus at a later date and submit your
completed personnel processing packet and documents. Make sure you go
