Calendar Exception Type

> >> >

Before setting up an OLE Calendar (used by each Circulation Desk), you must first define Exception Types. Exception Types define the most common reasons that a library is closed on a day(s) that it would otherwise normally be open. Typical Exception Types might include, but are not limited to:

Holiday

Building Evacuation

Weather Event

Snow Day

Spring Break

As soon as you create a Calendar Exception Type, the name appears in a drop-down menu on a Calendar for use when defining Exception Days and/or Exception Periods.

The Exception Type document includes the Add/Edit Calendar Exception Type tab. The system automatically enters data into both the Old and New sections in this tab. Selected data fields are available for editing.
