required PIN will require software development.

further development will be required.


Booking module –Elaine Hardy stated the booking module may not be used for bibliographic items
as a way to circumvent PINES policies. The PINES staff feels it could be used for meeting rooms
and equipment. Items can be set up with a circulation period and fine structure. The booking
module still needs some development, for instance, there is no calendar.
E-readers – OCLC has bib records for almost all blank e-readers.
Elaine Hardy reported that 2.X will include the ability to bind a child record to a parent record. This
will allow e-readers to be checked out with e-books.
Elizabeth McKinney stated that they are still aiming for fall to upgrade to 2.0. It will have a SIP 2
upgrade. Currently a patron can’t check his/her account, renew or pay fines from self-check. SIP 2
will need further upgrading for that ability. It will not be included in 2.0.
