<h2>Assignment: Create Basic Document</h2>
<p>For this assignment, you will create and format a business memo. Follow the directions below. If you get stuck on a step, review previous lessons and you can make use of some of the skills you learnt in <a href="https://app.ulearngo.com/tutorials/using-the-internet/">Internet Research</a> to browse the web for some solutions.</p>
<h2>Memo Text</h2>
<p>To: All Employees<br/>
From: Sierra Rowan, Store Manager<br/>
Date: September 1, 2019<br/>
Subject: New Shelves<br/>
Some of you may have noticed in recent weeks that the shelves in the home goods section are beginning to sag. We will be replacing those shelves with new, reinforced metal shelves starting next week. The shelves will be replaced 1:00–4:00 a.m., during our least busy hours. Several aisles will be off-limits to customers during that time as a safety precaution.<br/>
The following aisles will be affected:<br/>
Kitchen appliances<br/>
Kitchen &amp; dining furniture<br/>
Kitchen storage<br/>
Home goods clearance<br/>
Please direct customers looking for items in the affected aisles to the Outdoor Furniture and Patio Accessories areas.</p>
<h2>Memo Directions</h2>
