The Circulation Control Module OUS integrates the following main processes: administration of borrowers, administration of items on loan and their shelf marks, and the administration of loans and reservations.
Library staff can define a large number of departments, stacks (closed or open), loan desks (eg. Short loan), borrower types and loan categories. They can also define when the loans can be collected, the opening hours of the loan desk, the maximum number of items to be lent to one user, and the number of reminders to be sent for overdue items. Reminders can be sent both by mail and e-mail. Requests and reservations made in the Online Public Access Catalogue are processed online into the Circulation Control module.
