When issuing resources in Circulate, it is possible to alter the time period the resource is issued for.
By default, the 'Normal' option is used when issuing a resource.
- Normal is the loan duration that is specified by your Restrictions.
- Day is exactly that, a day loan. The resource will be due back at the end of the day.
- Overnight, again as simple as it sounds. The resource will be due back the next day.
- Manual is a great option for students doing exam revision. If you check the Manual check box, you can then select a date from the date field.
Most of the time it is likely that you will issue an item with Normal selected but it's helpful to know that other options are available should you wish to deviate from the default.
