Thanks! That's how we did things with our manual system: the media booker
would check stuff out and put it on a shelf at circ.
I'd love to hear from anyone else who is using bookings and what your
workarounds are.
For the case of late checkouts, are you capturing the resources first? A
few months ago, after working with one of our libraries to resolve the
same problem - or so I thought - I wrote the following: "bookings are
supposed to be captured (under Bookings -> Capture Resources) before
they're checked out - idea being that the "capture" indicates that the
item has been brought to the special reservations/bookings area from
wherever it might normally live elsewhere in the library. Once the item
is captured, it can be checked out early or late".
I've just asked for confirmation that this does, in fact, resolve the
problem.
Those reservations in question do have capture_time and the items have
On Reservation Shelf status. The issue is they do not show up on
Reservation Pick Up screen. When I looked at those records (last
Friday), some of them still had a couple of days reservation period.
