- My experience with circ errors is that if we are unable to find
- the book or magazine on the shelf the first time the patron comes in
- and complains, it is still in the patron's possession somewhere-
- somehow. I will place it in the "Claimed returned" status and then
- ask the patron to please check again and that we will do the same.
- It almost always is returned by the patron within a couple weeks--
- and usually with a most interesting explanation as to where it was
- found. I do occasionally make exceptions (if I know the patron
- personally), but those cases are very rare.
