If your organization maintains a physical library of materials, our Library module will help you manage these materials.  The library page consists of a link for adding new books at the top, and a table of all the books currently in circulation below.  

• Title - The title of the book or media.

• Out - If the book is currently out, this column will have the date and time that the book was checked out.
• By - The author of the book.
• In - The date and time that the book was received from the last person who  checked it out.
• Functions - This column lets you change the details on a book or delete it from circulation.
