Thank you mam for your valuable reply.

[Shilpi Aggarwal]

No,as per our library rules we allow them for circulation of books,but as u said that library vacation for 5 days and student vacation for 10 day, in that case we give due date after 5 days only so that anybody can come to the library and us the services.

Shilpi thank you for bening a part of this discussion.

 

in above case I'm also agree with you. If i'm using library software then I have to add 10 days vacation in holidays, right ?

In our Library we always give Notice to students to return the books before Summer Vacation. But not in case of Puja Vacation. Only after end of semester examination they need to return the books....If your library is opened in Summer Vacation & having Stock verification then all the book should be returned to the Library....Or during stock verification no issue or return of books should be done.....In our case students are bound to return all the books before summer vacation except who have special summer crash course in the campus....As per ur situation u can decide the policy...
