Hi Amanda

We have Voyager and we delete check-in records older than a few months or it will take quite a while to load the ‘history’ data, particularly for weeklies. 

A similar problem we have is whether or not to delete item records when they are withdrawn.   Is there a good reason to keep them for instance for statistics?  

 

Barbara.

Hi, Amanda. I guess I would ask what do you mean by filled check-in cards?  Do you still have the holdings?  PSU is still on Classic Dynix, so we don't have some of the bells and whistles of newer systems.

Sincerely,

I was wondering what other libraries protocols are on old and filled checkin cards.  Do you suppress the records?  Delete them?  Etc…

 

Thanks,

Amanda
