Library

A library is not run from a notebook. The catalogue is searched by title, author, ISBN or barcode; copy counts and what is available right now sit beside every book. A loan is written to the student's record, and a book past its return date shows itself on the list.

Highlights

  • A catalogue searched by title, author, ISBN or barcode — copies and availability together
  • Loans belong to the student record: who has it, when it went out, when it is due
  • Out, overdue and returned — one list, filtered
  • Returns are taken in one click; an overdue book makes itself known
  • Book records are archived rather than deleted

The end-of-term "who still has a book" phone calls end; the list is already in front of you.

Who it helps, and how

For library staff

The catalogue is searched by title, author, ISBN or barcode, with copy count and availability beside each book. A loan is written to the student's record, a return is taken in one click, and an overdue book shows itself on the list.

The benefit: The end-of-term 'who still has a book' phone calls end; the list is already in front of you.

For school management

Book records are archived rather than deleted.

The benefit: A loan record keeps the student who borrowed the book, the due date and when it was returned.
