15-Day "Last Patron" Information

Effective September 2010, the SJVLS Administrative Council of Library Directors voted to keep "last patron" data in Horizon for 15 days. This replaces the previous setting of 3 days. This makes it easier to contact the last person who checked out the item in case it was missing a piece or damaged - even if the item is in shipment for a while. System determined that 96% of the items in shipment would be delivered within 15 days so this time period would be sufficient for the vast majority of items.
