Letting Staff Choose the Checkout Period Around Expiration Dates
Horizon can be configured to prompt library staff to choose whether to truncate the loan period to the borrower’s card expiration date or allow the user to complete the full loan period even if the loan period goes past the expiration date, to always give the full loan period, or to truncate the loan period automatically.
