Quarantining items is messy for libraries anyway because of the lag time for patrons returning their items in and then receiving an overdue notice. Once they return the items, and then come in to check more items out, we have to manually override each and every item. Most of the times this has to do with families with little fidgety ones, and the longer it takes, the most stressful the interaction is for all parties. It would be nice if there was a way to have some sort of bulk override when those instances occur. +1, this would save a lot of annoying clicks +1, even the option to override single checkout or through the full patron interaction would be great. +1, this is a big time sink for some of our libraries, and it is a feature that some other ILS systems have. What would the functionality look like? Do we want it to automatically apply the override to the entire transaction automatically, or would there be a checkbox or something similar, like the "Remember for session" checkbox on the Checkout Settings?

I like a "remember for session" checkbox, yes. And probably a system preference that asks whether the default behavior should be to override for one checkout or for the session.
That would be very nice Andrew, I completely agree! |
