We have a semester-loan laptop program, and the due date for that is always the last day of finals. I typically check out those laptops before school starts to the students who've been approved into the program. So, on August 13 or so, I needed the due date to be December 17. In the spring, I will check them out around January 7 or so with a due date of May 13. That's over 120 days. Alma truncates the due date if the expiration date is earlier, so I had to click the "open for update" button on each patron and manually modify their expiration date a few days in advance to allow the end of semester due date. Can we get a little bit more of a buffer to cover semester-loan policies? Maybe 130-140 days?
Understood, thank you. tc
