Ways Libraries Are Taking Advantage of This Tool

Workflow Forms come standard with a LibStaffer subscription and are being used to document and manage processes like:

  • Job/volunteer applications
  • Equipment requests
  • Professional development requests
  • Travel requests
  • Consent forms
  • Onboarding forms
  • Staff suggestion forms
  • Vacation/time-off request forms and more!

How Are These Different Than Regular Forms?

Workflow Forms have features designed to make your life easier. Set up fully customized workflows for each form, including personalized notifications at each stage of the workflow, required reviewers at various stages, and statuses to indicate progress. Facilitate the entire life cycle of each process you outline with ease.

Key features include:
  • File Uploads: Perfect for job applications where you want a candidate to upload a resume, cover letter, or references.
  • Routing: Automatically route forms to a specific staff member, when designated selections are made on a form. For example, you can immediately notify the appropriate manager when an employee requests time off.
  • Stage Creation: Create custom stages and advance the form through each stage – from first looks to approvals and decisions.
  • Stage-Level Notifications: Customize notifications at each stage of the workflow – with required reviewers and tailored statuses to indicate progress.
  • Notes: Establish a clear audit-friendly discussion at any stage by leaving detailed notes that can be reviewed and responded to.

Imagine never having to say, "Where were we at with that again?" Avoid sifting through hundreds of emails to find the one you need to keep your hiring process moving along. Feel confident that nothing will slip through the cracks the next time you're onboarding new staff. The possibilities with LibStaffer Workflow Forms are truly endless and customizable to fit any library process!
