Manual circulation procedures

[Marjorie Schor <MJSchor@AOL.COM>]

As a brand new media specialist, I have a few questions about circulation
procedures in general and manual circulation procedures.
How many books do you allow the children to take out each week?
How do you keep track of teacher circulation (today the teachers were just
coming in and taking books from the shelf)?
How do you keep track of children's circulation, renewals, reserves,
overdues?  What kind of system do you use.  My predecessor had paper clips
all over cards to denote renewals, reserves, etc.  This would drive me crazy!

Thanks a lot for your help.
