Hi,

There seems to be a bit of confusion from our patron’s and VR staff with the idle message we originally suggested that reads: "I’ve stepped away from the desk…"

You can enter your Idle Message under Nicknames and other settings. 

Scroll down to LibChat Settings to make the change.

Instructions on changing your Idle Message and suggested language and elapsed time before the idle message appears to patrons is at this link.

If you have any questions let me know.

Bill
VR Coordinator
