At what point do you decide, "Okay this book is never coming back, let's order a new copy."? I've decided to contact Hayward in a few months to see how it's going and what issues have arisen. George Hi Sharon,

I’ve asked our Library Director about the book stocks aspect and she agrees it could be a problem with this concept. At what point do you decide, “Okay this book is never coming back, let’s order a new copy.”?

I’ve decided to contact Hayward in a few months to see how it’s going and what issues have arisen.

In the UK, most libraries that I've used have extended borrowing periods and you can borrow lots of books, but I can see how in a system with short loans this might revitalize the library. Anything that gets more books to more people sounds good to me, but there's definitely an issue to handle in terms of book stocks. .-= Sharon Hurley Hall´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Getpaidtowrite/~3/A-bWYMKOn3g/" rel="nofollow">Dragon NaturallySpeaking Review</a> =-.

Library staff are the WORST at being late. Truly. The Iditapage challenge is rockin'! The whole patronage is SO into it. It's been less that two weeks and we already have over 60,000 pages read! In asking around, it sounds like the library can recall a book if another patron has put it on hold. It will be interesting to see how successful this program may be. Cheers!
