Hello,
Does anyone who lends out laptops or other equipment have a
reliable booking system for them?
We would like users to be able to book the equipment in
advance, but our library management system doesn’t flag up future
reservations if someone else comes in to borrow the item in the meantime.
This can result in their loan period overlapping the date it was booked for by
the first person - not ideal...
Kind regards,
Lesley H.
