====== Booking an Item ======

In order to book an Item for an Reader, select the Reader and then the Item required in order to make them both active. If not already selected, select the tabbed panel titled 'Bookings'. On selection, four fields are made available - a start date and time combination, an end date and time combination, a drop-down pick list containing all of the possible pickup / delivery methods available, and a list-box containing all of the current bookings for this Item.

{{:pergamonmu:circulations:how:circulations-booking.png?nolink |}}Either enter start and end dates into the fields selected or select the appropriate [?] button in order to select the date and time from a date-selection dialog, then choose the pickup method from the drop-down. When placing bookings, the list of existing books is not utilised.

Once all three fields are suitably configured, select [Book] in order to place the booking.

Selection of an Item that is already on loan will result in an offer being made to switch the currently displayed Reader (the one requiring the reservation) to the Reader with the Item, with the intention that a re-issue or return take place. In order to continue with the booking, ensure that the offer is refused.
