allocating a budget for each fund. The amount I put without any signs, as
suggested in the user guide, for the period set was ignored by the system. Unfortunately
the system does not give any prompt concerning the failure or any guidance why
the input is not accepted, and what should be done. An attempt to
continue without budget allocation was not possible either, because Acquisitions
warns that budget must be defined and sends me back to Book Fund Admin page.
Why the figure I put as budget is refused?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

of Print Reserve Collection is very important for us. We lend
textbooks from Reserve Collection for 3 hours or 24 hours depending on
demand and number of copies. Our current system allows us making a choice
between two loan periods for the same item, and the loan period is by hours,
not days. With Koha I am not sure how we could handle circulation of
Print Reserve Collection, and would welcome any solution or clarification.
