Add feature to Bookings to allow for set up time between checkouts
When a user makes a booking in Alma there is no allowance for set up for the item after it is returned and before it is checked out again. This lack of time for set up may not be an issue for things like books, but if the item is a laptop that needs to be reimaged before it goes out to the next user then this can be a problem. I believe that adding a set up time option to the booking TOUs would help moderate this issue. The set-up time would be added to the end of the booking to ensure that there was an interval before the next booking could be scheduled. The library staff should be able to customize the length of the set-up time in the TOUs. Options for Min. hours or days would provide flexibility for a variety of different types of items to be booked with set up time appropriate for the item.
