The chart will tell you who makes changes and how. Just click on the link to see instructions if you fall into the category.
Be warned that we cannot make changes to several types of records. If it comes down to a person wanting a book and we can't charge it to them, charge the book to the HOLD shelf w/the patron's name. Tell them that we will hold the book for them for about 10 days. Hopefully that will give them time to work out their problem and come back...
