Belatedly I discovered that only one status will display and the restricted status field hides 'not for loan'. Though the information is still there in the staff interface. I don't think this will be a problem. But you folks on the coal face may feel differently. Elaine VWML <https://vwml.org> On Thu, Oct 21, 2021 at 10:12 AM Elaine Bradtke <eb@efdss.org> wrote:
I would like to ask how other libraries are handling material in remote storage. Currently, we only have a location code for off-site material. However, it seems we need a way to clearly indicate that the material must be requested a certain amount of time in advance.
Do you use the holds module for these items? We haven't used patron logins, or holds because it's primarily a reference collection. Do you treat remote storage as a branch? So many options, please tell me what works best for you.
