I was wondering wether there are other libraries, particularly corporate or specialty libraries who have a need (or could see one :-)
for sub branches.
Yes, I think libraries with locations/branches and offices/subbranches are more likely to transfer books between subbranches often
I'm curious...what exactly does transferring a book *do*? It seems that by transferring a book you're pre-emptively setting the item's location to it's destination, even though it's not there yet. This isn't much better than simply checking in the book when it arrives--in both scenarios the book's location is inaccurate until it arrives. I'm also confused about the purpose of having both homebranch and holdingbranch. It would make sense if Koha have some kind of feedback about changes--"This book belongs in the Athens Branch. Transfer?" How are other libraries using these features? Am I misunderstanding how they're supposed to work? -- Owen ---- Web Developer Nelsonville Public Library http://www.athenscounty.lib.oh.us
