Dear Experts, Here is another newbie question. I am confused about the Circulation Modifier table and how extensive it needs to be. Here's the scenario. Our Org Unit structure includes a main library, a branch library, and three sub-libraries. All libraries have books that all have different

Hi Dan, I have a few improvements to the staff client that I am still testing internally, but I plan to push them into 2.6 at some point. Would it be best to create launchpad bugs for them now? Liam Whalen BC Libraries Cooperative - Sitka Systems Specialist 855-383-5761 x1022

We allow volume holds on our OPAC. Copy hold should be the same. You grant perm COPY_HOLD to the user groups and provide a link to placing copy hold on OPAC. You may check our OPAC https://catalogue.libraries.coop. Other people can correct me if I missed anything. Tina Quoting
