[Koha] Multiple staff logins necessary for circulation?

[Hollis Near]

Liz,

I like it.  This will account for our student assistants with limited access and staff can log on when needing to use higher level functions.   I'll go with this model.

Many thanks, Hollis

NEKLS does exactly this - we have 3 accounts for each of our 36 libraries, a circ (can do anything with borrowers, and circulate books), a tech (can do cataloging, reports and edit items as well as circ), and a director account (as close to a superuser as we'll allow, so everything but modifying systemwide preferences).

This has worked well for us, and I believe it is easier to maintain than an account for every staff member. If you want to track which *computers* do what, you could consider a login for each station, if accountability is what you are concerned about.
