Hi Joanne,
My understanding is that the answer here is a yes . . . but. For a regular loan, if an item is due on a given date it will be due by closing or 11:59 pm on that date (depending on your set-up). If it
comes in at 2 am on the following date, it’s overdue. I’d think those 2 am returns could be resolved with a grace period.
For short term loans, the system should ‘do the math’, so that a 4 hour loan that is checked out at 10pm should be due at 2 am the next day as long as your calendar indicates that you’re open. What I’m not entirely
clear on is what happens to that 4 hour loan when you check it out at 11pm and the system is set to count closed hours..
Does that help? Does anyone have a clearer answer?

Subject: Due times after midnight
Dear Sig members,
Please remind me – will FOLIO recognize due times after midnight (say, 2am?) – some of our libraries are open after midnight, and circulate minutely loans (reserves and equipment) that can come due between midnight and 2:00am. Will FOLIO
recognize these due times as valid?
Thanks! - Joanne
