We are currently considering converting our closed access Short Loan
Collection to an alarmed open access collection. We are concerned that
users may enter the collection with items from the remainder of the library
which have not been issued (i.e. still sensitised), then leaving and
triggering the alarm. Are we worrying unnecessarily? Has anyone
encountered this or had any other operational headaches. Alternatively,
has anyone any really positive suggestions for its success?
