What we wondered was, what do you do then with the child (or, worse, the
parent) who says, "I never knew what the due date was" even though I know
we try to also verbally say the due date to each and every child.  And,
yes, most automation programs do provide the statistics.  Now, if they
could only track magazines off the rack and reference materials off the
shelves!  Sigh....
