There are certain limits on Assignments. They are:
- Only one resource per assignment
- Assignment periods can be from 1-365 days
- Assignments can be scheduled up to 365 days in advance
- Assignments cannot extend beyond 366 days into the future
- Assignments that contain subscription digital resources cannot be assigned passed the expiration date
You also cannot create an assignment that begins “today.” Mackin’s system runs a series of scheduled processes to maintain the integrity of checkouts and other circulation activities. In addition, we have no mechanism for terminating active online reads.
However, there is:
- No limit on the number of assignments
- No limit on the number of copies
- No limit on the number of members
