I have always be taught that it is common courtesy to lock and shim on a
standard before you leave an NMR. This way the person coming after you
knows what to expect when they set down at the spectrometer. However, I am
getting the feeling that not all NMR facilities do this. Before I arrived
here they did not lock and shim on a standard so there has been some
resistance to this. I would be interested in hearing some input on this
subject. What do you do in your facilities?
