New way to book equipment

Hello to all the Wonderful Teachers and Staff at Preston Reservoir Adult Community Education (PRACE). We're moving to a new system for booking equipment like cameras, laptops and so forth. Essentially it's a spreadsheet, and it's online so you can access it any time you have internet nearby. No more looking for that piece of paper in the office at Merrilands, or having to ring Maria in the office. 


You need to login to google.com/docs*, so you'll need to remember your PRACE gmail ID & login. [No i'm not putting any hints out here on the open web.]


[if you want, there's a shortcut directly into the booking sheet: j.mp/pracequip]


Here's michael giving an overview of the new system. This newer video is still longer than i'd like it, at 6 minutes, but it gives more detail on how to make a new line within a spreadsheet cell (essential for multiple bookings as it stands).
