Setting Closed Days in the Calendar

The Calendar can be used to close the library on certain days of the year. 

To access the calendar, log into the library system and load the management page, select 'Tools' on the menu bar at the top of the page and select  'Calendar...' from the list.

Weekend Closure

To close the weekends, click the 'Close Weekends' button to the top right of the window. The weekends (Sat/Sun) will now be highlighted blue to indicate they are closed. Click 'OK' to save these changes.

Holiday Closure

To close other periods such as bank holidays or term time closures, select the 'Close' option from the menu at the top of the calendar and select the year you wish to set the closed days for by using the left and right arrows either side of the year.

Next, click on the day(s) you wish to set as closed. With each click, the day will be highlight blue to indicate that it is closed. When you are happy with the changes you have made, click 'OK' to apply them.

Note that changes to the calendar will not affect resources already on loan. Return dates which fall on a closed date will automatically be changed to fall on the next date the library is open regardless of the loan period unless a Force Return date has also been set.
