[Koha] Web-based circulation interface

[kaye.guidetti at wesley.com.au]

I don't see any problem with just having a link to another page which
displays the overdues - many library software programs handle it this way.
Would also like to see a flag if there is a reserved book waiting for the
borrower to collect. I can't tell you how many times a borrower has
borrowed his books and walked out only to have another staff member come
over and say - did Mr so and so collect the book that was waiting for him?
Borrower has holds / Borrower has books to collect / or something similar??
Sirsi Unicorn software just flags accounts (money owing). If there is money
owing for an overdue fine you get caught, if there is money owing for a
lost book you get caught, if there is money owing because you have to pay a
reservation fee on a book that is now available to collect you get caught,
but you get the book too.

That sounds like a good idea. We have more screen real estate with a web
browser than we do with a curses screen, so no real reason to have to click
through to another page.

What do the librarians think?
