[Thomas, Kirsti]

We'll definitely be looking at this over the summer for our reserves and equipment.

Subject: [Wactclc-alma] Reloan Limit

Hi all,

Is anyone using Reloan Limits?

Reloan Limit

Prevents reloaning items to a patron that has just returned the item. A different copy of the same title with the same material type is considered as a single item for this policy. The policy type has three possible options:
o    None - there is no limit on borrowing copies of the same title. This is the prior functionality and the default.
o    Parallel - the patron may not check out two copies of the title at one time.
o    Other - you may define the time span (in the Unit of Measurement) in which the same item may not be reloaned - minutes, hours, days, weeks, or months.

For more information, see Loaning Items<https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Product_Documentation/010Alma_Online_Help_(English)/030Fulfillment/020Circulation_Desk_Operations/040Managing_Patron_Services#Loaning_Items>.


We just started exploring this option and are wondering if it might be appropriate for our laptops and chromebooks.

Thanks!
Lesley
