It's cool. But I see him continuing to make changes. Will there be a common point of control in the future, or all just willy nilly as Before?

Akkarin works in the Education department and usually updates related articles instead of bugging somebody else to do it. I personally don't see the issue in that considering we are all volunteers here. Nobody owns the exlusive right and nobody was wronged by being saved of extra work.

Mm. I can see this both ways. You are right. No one is being paid to work these jobs, no one owns or masters over any of them and if someone is willing to do some extra work then its an all around win for everyone.
But I think what the problem here is - And perhaps I am wrong, but, a distinct lack of respect towards each other. I see excuses why its ok to do whatever instead of open-ness to adapt to each others methods. Its all about "You don't own this position" instead of "Next time We will attempt to communicate better."
What is the point of having these specific jobs and office's if everyone is just going to run about doing everything anyways?
Just some random thoughts to consider. Hopefully this next run will go a bit smoother for everyone
Good Luck.

There has been talks with Akkarin about communication in that regard. At this point though there is no one to communicate with.

Im sure
And that's great!
But remember....us Apprentice's don't see these improvements and back end communications. Its easy for us to fall behind on the "Know how"
A short message stating: Recent librarian positions are in discussion based on improved communication with the staff is in effect. Position fillment updates coming soon!!
Could have helped with that maybe?

This will be the third and last time I ehm.. mention it. I am still interested, though I do like to add to it that I do not want to take any sort of office if being considered a second option if no Knight is willingly. :blush:

Sure, Tris. I typically keep personal issues like that quiet unless it becomes necessary to mention. That's just my way of doing things. Maybe I'm in need of rethinking that.
Aqua, I know you applied for the assistant position. You are interested in the Librarian office? I'll put your name into the mix.

*Nods* I understand, and I am not trying to trample on toes. But its clear there are miscommunications and assumptions based on some heavy emotions going around. Just offering suggestions on how that might be improved down the road. This goes back to the whole "Lack of transparency" and such too
We don't need the goary details, but it would help to have a general idea on how sittuations that explode (Like the Librarian Fiasco) are being handled all around.
Anyways. Ill stop chatting now. Just offering thoughts

Okay, so once a new Librarian is put into office, will they be given control of the library and such things, or will people be able to strong arm them outta the way again?

If by strong arm you mean update relevant departmental information in part of the ongoing mission to grow, cleanup, and improve the Temple then yeah there is still the chance of strong arm. Hopefully though with better communication this time.
