|
||||
<p><a name="kanchor4084"></a><a name="IX_overview_135"></a>When a patron checks out or renews an item, the due date is calculated based on the following: </p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
The patron code and item loan period relationship established by the governing library for the transaction (by default the item’s assigned branch), and
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li>The closed dates and hours of operation of the lending library. <![CDATA[ ]]></li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>The patron code is stored in the patron record, while the loan period code is stored in the item record. The Loan Periods policy table associates the patron code and loan period code to determine the loan period for an item assigned to a particular branch. </p>
|
||||
<p>All daily and weekly loans are due at 11:59 PM on the due date. For information on items with a loan period set in hours or minutes, see <a href="#XREF_85177_Hourly_Loans">Hourly Loans</a>.</p>
|
||||
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>For daily and weekly loans, overdue fine calculation does not begin until the end of the day. For hourly loans, fines are calculated according to the exact time due. See <a href="../PDPfines/Calculating_Overdue_Fines.htm#XREF_42383_Calculating">Calculating Overdue Fines</a>.</p>

The default value is 14 days. This value is also used to automatically add an entry to the table if a new branch or patron code is added.</p>
|
||||
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note: <br /></b>If a loan period cannot be found in any table or parameter, a message at check-out indicates that the loan period cannot be calculated. In this case, circulation staff can allow the system to use the undefined loan period setting, or they can set the item’s loan period manually, by opening the Special Loan dialog from the Check Out workform.</p>
|
||||
<p><a name="kanchor4091"></a><a name="IX_offline_calculation"></a><a name="kanchor4092"></a><a name="IX_due_date_calculation"></a>For offline circulation, the system always uses the workstation branch’s setting for the Patron Services parameter <b>Standard loan period</b> to calculate the due date. This is because there is no access to the database during offline circulation. However, the Loaning Branch recorded in the transaction and in the item record is the logged-on user’s branch. This allows libraries to gather statistics for different bookmobile stops based on user log-on, while maintaining a consistent loan period for the bookmobile (the workstation branch).</p>

See <MadCap:conditionalText data-mc-conditions="Primary.Hidden,Primary.Online"><a href="../../Administration/PDorgnizatn/Identifying_Dates_Closed.htm">Identifying Dates Closed</a>.</MadCap:conditionalText> If the Patron Services parameter <b>Hours of Operation</b> designates the day of the week as a closed day for the branch (for example, Sunday), the due date moves to the next open day.</p>

If the item is due after the lending library closes, one of the following events occurs:</p>
|
||||
<ul type="disc">
|
||||
<li>If the <b>Overnight loan period</b> parameter is set to permit automatic overnight loans, the due date is set to the next day the library is open. The due time is set to the library’s opening time, plus any additional time specified by the library.</li>
|
||||
<li>If the <b>Overnight loan period</b> parameter is set to <span class="FM_Emphasis" style="font-style: italic;">not</span> permit automatic overnight loans, one of the following events occurs:</li>
|
||||
<li>If the loan period is less than 24 hours, the transaction is blocked. If you override the block, the due date is set to the next day the library is open, and the due time is set to the library’s opening time, plus any additional time specified by the library. If you do not override the block, the item is due at the lending library’s closing time on the current day.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Example:<br /></b>An item is checked out on Thursday at 4:00 P.M. for a six-hour loan period. The lending library closes at 8:00 P.M. and opens on Friday at 10:00 A.M. If automatic overnight loans are permitted plus two additional hours, the item is due on Friday at 12:00 noon. If automatic overnight loans are not permitted, the transaction is blocked. If you override the block, the item is due on Friday at 12:00 noon. If you do not override the block, the item is due when the library closes on Thursday at 8:00 P.M.</p>
|
||||
<ul type="disc">
|
||||
<li>If the loan period is 24 hours or more, the transaction is not blocked because the overnight loan setting is irrelevant.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>You can set the <b>Overnight loan period</b> parameter at the System, Library, or Branch level.</p>
|
||||
<h2><a name="TOC_Setting_Up_Non"></a><a name="XREF_20663_Non_Circulating"></a>Non-Circulating Items</h2>
|
||||
<p><a name="kanchor4103"></a><a name="IX_designating"></a><a name="kanchor4104"></a><a name="IX_non_circulating_items"></a>You can designate certain items as non-circulating in two ways:</p>
|
||||
<ul type="disc">
|
||||
<li>To make a specific item non-circulating for all patrons, select the <b>Non-circulating</b> checkbox on the Item Record workform - Circulation view. An advantage of this method is that patrons can see that an item is non-circulating in their PAC search results. You can set a special PAC description for these items. See <a href="../PDPitems/View_circulation_status_names_and_edit_descriptions.htm#XREF_38904_View_circulation">View circulation status names and edit descriptions</a>.</li>
|
||||
<li>To make some items non-circulating for certain patron codes only, create a non-circulating loan period code. See <a href="Add_a_loan_period_code.htm#XREF_97900_Add_a_loan_period">Add a loan period code</a>. Then assign the loan period code to the appropriate patron codes, and specify a <b>Units</b> value of 0 for each restricted patron code. See <a href="Add_a_loan_period.htm#XREF_49466_Add_a_loan_period">Add a loan period</a>.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>When a patron attempts to check out a non-circulating item, a block appears. If the circulation staff member overrides the block, and the item itself is non-circulating, Polaris assigns a loan period according to the loan period code in the item record. If the circulation staff member overrides the block, and the item is non-circulating for specified patron codes, Polaris assigns a loan period of one time unit as defined in the Loan Periods table.</p>
|
||||
<h2><a name="Renewal"></a>Renewal Parameter Settings</h2>
|
||||
<p>The <b>Renewal: Calculate based on due date</b> parameter determines how Polaris calculates due dates for renewals. You can set this parameter at the System level in Polaris Administration (staff client) by going to <b>Parameters</b> > <b>Patron Services</b>.</p>

<p><a name="kanchor1076"></a><a name="IX_overview_137"></a>A loan period specifies how long an item can be checked out, based on the loan period code assigned to the item and the patron code of the person checking out the item. You can specify a different time period for each combination of loan period code and patron code. You can have only one loan period for a specific loan period code/patron code combination in each branch.</p>
|
||||
<p><a name="kanchor1077"></a><a name="IX_overview_138"></a>Loan periods are defined by entries in the Loan Periods policy table, which can be displayed on an organization workform or with the Administration Explorer. Loan periods can be set from the system, library, and branch levels. However, entries are assigned to specific branches, and you specify loan periods for each branch. Your setting for governing library determines which branch’s settings are used in calculating the loan period. The default is the item’s assigned branch. </p>
|
||||
<p>When the table is opened at the system level, you can view, add, or change entries for any branch. At the library level, you can view, add, or change entries for the branches associated with the library. At the branch level, you can view, add, or change entries for the selected branch. You cannot delete loan period entries in Polaris Administration. The system administrator can change the Loan Periods table using the Query Analyzer in SQL Server.</p>
|
||||
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Note:<br /></b>The following System Administration permissions are required to modify this table: <b>Access administration: Allow</b>, <b>Access tables: Allow</b>, <b>Modify loan periods table: Allow</b>.</p>

<h1><a name="XREF_60611_Setting"></a>Defining Loan Periods</h1>
|
||||
<p>Due date calculation is based on settings in both the patron record and item record, as well as the policies and schedule of the lending library. Polaris Administration tables define patron codes and item loan period codes, and determine the relationships between them. At check-out, the system links the item and patron records and determines which settings to use when calculating the due date.</p>
|
||||
<p>Patron codes and item loan period codes are shared by all libraries to facilitate lending and receiving items anywhere in the system. However, each branch in the system can establish different policies concerning loan durations for specific patron and item code combinations.</p>
|
||||
<p class="NoteShade"><b>Important:<br /></b>You set which branch’s policies are used in due date calculation with the system-level Patron Services parameter <b>Consortium Circulation</b>. See: <MadCap:conditionalText data-mc-conditions="Primary.Online,Primary.Hidden"><a href="../../Public_Access_Admin/PDOresults/Configuring_the_PowerPAC_Title_Display.htm" class="Heading MCXref xref xrefHeading"><span style="color: Blue;" class="mcFormatColor">Configuring the PowerPAC Title Display</span></a>.</MadCap:conditionalText></p>
|
||||
<p>The settings used to calculate due dates are established when Polaris is first installed, but you can change them when a library or branch is added to the system, or when lending policies change. After you set up the criteria that affect due dates, you can set up fines for overdue items. See <a href="../PDPfines/Defining_Fines_and_Fees.htm">Defining Fines and Fees</a>.</p>

|
||||
<p><a name="kanchor2909"></a><a name="IX_overview_139"></a>To prevent items from circulating after a specific or recurring date, regardless of the item’s loan period, your library can set an end-of-term (EOT) due date. Academic libraries and public libraries that work with schools may use this feature to make sure that no items are due after the last day of a term. Libraries may also use an EOT date to gather all circulating material by a certain date for inventory or another special purpose. You can include or exempt specific patron codes from a selected EOT date.</p>
|
||||
<p>The staff client and <span class="mc-variable III_Variables.Prod_Leap variable">Leap</span> check system administration for end-of-term due date settings.</p>
|
||||
<p>End-of-term dates affect circulation transactions in the following ways: </p>
|
||||
<ul type="disc">
|
||||
<li>If you attempt to check out or renew an item with a due date after the next EOT date, the item is assigned the EOT date. However, if a patron with an exempted patron code (such as a faculty member) is checking out the item, the due date can be after the EOT date.</li>
|
||||
<li>To override an EOT date for an item, you can assign a special loan period at check-out or renewal. <MadCap:conditionalText data-mc-conditions="Primary.Hidden,Primary.Online">See <a href="../../Patron_Services/PPckout/Assign_a_special_loan_period.htm">Assign a special loan period</a>.</MadCap:conditionalText></li>
|
||||
<li>By default, Polaris uses the EOT date of the item’s assigned branch, <span class="FM_Emphasis">not</span> the EOT of the check-out branch. You can set a different governing library for the calculation. See <MadCap:conditionalText data-mc-conditions="Primary.Online,Primary.Hidden"><a href="../../EContent Integration/EContentPAC/Managing_EContent_in_the_PAC.htm" class="Heading MCXref xref xrefHeading"><span style="color: Blue;" class="mcFormatColor">Managing Integrated EContent in the PAC</span></a></MadCap:conditionalText>.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>You set EOT dates with the Patron Services parameter <b>End-of-term due date options</b>, which is available at the system, library, and branch levels.</p>
