NTU CEMS & LibFAQ

Help Guide on Ticketing System and LibFAQ powered by SpringShare's LibAnswers

Purpose

The main NTU Library queue triggers feedback emails to all closed tickets with replies from us, 24 hours after the ticket is closed.

It also triggers the feedback email to non-NTU/NIE (external) users whom we may have to reply or rejected requests or we do not need to solicit feedback from.

Examples include:

  • DR-NTU restricted paper requests
  • Publishers or vendors hard-selling their products
  • Book donations

LibAnswers does not have a feature to exclude any email domains from receiving the feedback email. 

Note: NTU Library (no feedback link sent) queue was created with similar settings (tagging required, email templates, alerts etc.) as the main NTU Library queue except that it does not have the feedback email enabled and will not send any feedback emails to the Asker

SE Team will be alerted of any tickets that were transferred to NTU Library (no feedback link sent) queue and will monitor the tickets. 

Tickets from NTU or NIE Library members (staff, students, external/personal members) & our institutional members MUST NOT be transferred to NTU Library (no feedback link sent) queue. 

 

Steps to transfer to NTU Library (no feedback link sent) queue

  1. Transfer the tickets to the NTU Library (no feedback link sent) queue first before replying. Otherwise the feedback emails will be sent.

    For no.3, please select your name if you are following up. 
     
  4. Add any notes (if any) and click "Submit Transfer as Open"
  5. For queue transfers, it will redirect back to the dashboard (LibAnswers hard-coded setting). You can click on the "Back" button on your browser to return to the ticket. 

    The queue name would have changed to "NTU Library (no feedback link sent) queue" now.
