Access rights: Not available after X date
Add an access rights parameter 'not available after x date' OR 'available till dd/mm/yyyy'
Essentially an inverse embargo period.
This would be extremely helpful for purchased and copyright material for which we have a limited licence, e.g. one semester or one calendar year.
You can now configure access rights to expire for a patron according to a time period after a certain date. To support this feature, the Expiration option is now available when configuring parameters for access rights rules

Could be useful for e-reserve where we have direct permission to reproduced but only for a limited period.

This would be very useful as we have material from smaller publishers who don't have their own platform but give us rights to host for a limited time. Currently I'm having to put reminders in my calendar to pull access at the expiry date.
