In answer to your question regarding faculty checkout limits, our school "limits" the faculty by reminding them every three weeks or so about what items are checked out in their name. Our library is automated which allows us to print a list of items checked out to a teacher very quickly. In doing so, the teacher is reminded of the items checked out in his/her name and eliminates the problem of a teacher's forgetting that he/she has the item out and also reminds the teacher of the NUMBER of items he/she has out. There is no limit of the number of items a teacher can check out. As far as holiday items go, it is still first come first serve. Fortunately, the teachers usually cooperate with each other in this respect. Unfortunately, however, this often creates a whole new set of problems when faculty switch library materials. We set our computer to limit faculty check out to three weeks and they may renew when the time is up. The audiovisual equipment checked out can be for the whole school year. I hope this helps you.
