Cate,

What counts as a loan policy? Here at Cornell, we have separate rules for every combination of library – item type – patron group, and variations within those combos that pertain to renewals, fines, grace periods, and many other parameters. There are currently 6,194 circulation rules in our matrix, but if you strip out the finely detailed settings that would make a fully-configured rule, we have 29 distinct loan period/loan interval combinations.

RA SIG folks,

Quick question. Approximately how many loan policies do you think you might have?

Thanks much!
