Abstract

LibStaffer is a staff scheduling tool for libraries provided by Springshare. In this article, we present the analysis that we implemented to determine the potential of LibStaffer in order to simplify staff scheduling in library branches with various configurations, as well as in transversal units with a focus on public services. As a starting point, we focused on the questions available in Philippe Lenepveu and Marc Maisonneuve's work on scheduling tools for libraries. We then enriched the initial list with questions that emerged among several colleagues. After a two-month LibStaffer trial period, we were able to answer those questions and were convinced to take out a subscription to the tool. -- LibStaffer est un outil de gestion de planning de service pour les biblioth\`eques propos\'e par Springshare.
