Resource Policies

Resource Policies (Back Office > Resource Policies) let you set up limitations for the circulation of your resources.

Use Resource Policies to:

  • Define the loan periods
  • Assign defined limitations to your resources
  • Determine which resource types your various patron types are allowed to check out

When the circulation limits are defined, Check Out Resources in Circulation automatically assigns a loan period (the length of time a patron is allowed to keep an item) based on the patron type of the borrower and the resource type of the item.

Note: Destinyalerts you when a checkout violates one of the defined policies. When it does, a message appears, indicating the resource policy that the checkout violates. You must override it before continuing with the transaction.

Important: By default, all of your resource types have the System Default loan period.
