We have one full time person who handles journal check-in
and claiming and a second full time person who handles
bindery and serials added volumes.  However, since we
have started checking in on the NOTIS system our check-in
person has started to develop carpal tunnel syndrome and
has severe neck pains.  We have been investigated new
furniture for her setup and we are having the bindery
person do more of the terminal check-in work to try to
relieve some of her pain.  Has anyone else run into this
problem?  Could anyone recommend a good ergonomic chair
or vendor?
[We have about 2000 serial subscriptions.]
