Winter Storm Warning

When enough snow accumulates and you get a SNOW DAY, set the Destiny calendar as ‘closed’ for that day and due dates will re-calculate. Back Office>Calendar

End of year - Circulation - "Ceiling Date"

The Ceiling Date overrides the normal due date calculated by Destiny if the ceiling date is earlier than the calculated due date. A ceiling date also overrides any fixed due date.

Some use the last day of school so that all items are due on the last day of school, no matter what their calculated due date would be. Others want all items back in the library sooner.

Make sure to change this date each year. Destiny increments the year if needed, but the date may not be correct for your school year. It might fall on the wrong day of the week.

To change the ceiling date: Back Office>Library Policies. Destiny opens on Patron Type. This will be the easiest location for you to use because most libraries have fewer patron types than circulation types. Change the Ceiling Date for each Patron Type and Save. 

NOTE: Once past the Ceiling Date, Destiny reverts to regular circulation parameters, like Faculty can check out books for 30 days.

***Let it snow!***Let it snow!***Let it snow!***

What do you do when there is a snow day? The due dates will get messed up! Don’t worry – just go to Back Office>Calendar and change the date to CLOSED. Destiny will recalculate the due dates. Since Destiny is web based – you can do this while you are at home enjoying the day away from work.
Curl up on the couch with a cup of hot cocoa and a good book!
