How are you going with the new catalogue? Got any questions?

I'm working my way through customising it at the moment.

Cheers, webgurl

Hi webgurl,
When I browse the catalogue for bookclub sets, I see some books marked as never due. Does this mean they are gone for good?
In the synopsis, books can show as no copies available, but then under the Item information tab:

My life so far [bookclub set]
Fonda, Jane.
Publisher: Ebury Press,
Pub date: 2006.
Pages: 1 v. :
Item info: No copies currently available. Estimated wait undetermined.
Holdings

BOOKCLUB SET 1 Book Due: NEVER
2 Book Due: NEVER
3 Book Due: NEVER
4 Book Due: NEVER
5 Book Due: NEVER
6 Book Due: NEVER
7 Book Due: NEVER
8 Book Due: NEVER
9 Book Due: NEVER
10 Book Due: NEVER

Hey jayay0

Great question!

I've asked about this and apparently it comes up if the books are checked out to a library's bookclub facilitator card. Each of our branches has a person that facilitates the bookclub use at that branch and they use these cards in order to check out the books while they wait to be picked up by the bookclub.

Staff are going to have a look at this and see if we can change it to a date e.g. 4 weeks etc. I can see how it's confusing the way it displays at the moment.

Cheers, webgurl

No problem. I hope we start to get some more members on here soon so we'll be able to swap advice about the books and generate some great discussion.

Cheers, webgurl
