regarding library software (reservation)
We have in house library software.I have a query regarding reservation of books. Kindly suggest me the better way of reservation of books.By accession no. or book title?
Generally it can be done by accession no. in most of the library software.But we have multiple copies of same books in library, so it is also possible reserved book might be return late and other same copy came first which is not reserved by users?

Yes Ms. Nimisha, you have to go for reservation of books by accession no. only. Because accession no. of unique & single. But same titles may be written by different authors. So reservation may not be work properly with book title. Reservation of books by accession no. is possible for mutiple copies(like same title book having accession no. entered in the databse from 123 to 130). User can reserve the book having accession no. 123, if acc. no. 125 is returned to library users can be able to borrow the book acc. no. 125 because its comming in range of 123 to 130.
Thanks,
