Do you know if renewals are counted as a circulation in Evergreen? We recently migrated from TLC, where renewals were counted separate from circulation in the reports. Just curious. Thanks for the input. Chauncey -- Chauncey G. Montgomery, MLIS Director/Fiscal Officer Community Library

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] 2.3 Staff Client and Wine

Random tip for the day: If you are running the 2.3 staff client with Wine on Linux, make sure that you have the most current version of Wine installed. Otherwise, portions of the client interface will be blacked out. A simple upgrade of Wine solved everything. CM -- Chauncey G. Montgomery
