[Web4lib] Library Staff Scheduler

[Deb Bergeron]

Sharon,

Kudos to you for taking this on!

 In looking at your wiki and your requirements list, we could use this 
in a completely different way.  We're an academic consortium with 14 
libraries.  I can see this type of application working for us in two ways:

1. Manage our  courier schedule.
2. Manage library hours.  With so many libraries, hours vary greatly.

Is this the type of 'unique requirements' you're looking for from other 
libraries?

Thanks,

Deb
