[OPLINLIST] Floating Collections

[Charlie Hansen]

Has anyone in systems made up of multiple locations experimented with
floating collections (items have no fixed ownership location - just stay
where they are requested/checked in)?  We are currently considering
using such a system for our new book collection.  We have seven
locations and currently rotate new materials from branch to branch every
2-3 months.  

 

Any responses listing pros and cons would be great.

 

Thank you in advance.
