Keeping track of dwyl books
A place to keep track of dwyl books 📖
Please note down here when people have borrowed books, and mark when they've returned them.
@rub1e Did these come back? Can we close this issue and move it to the library repo? 😊
In "normal" circumstances I would never allow a book to go "AWOL".
But given that the Elixir & Phoenix books have changed since our paper copies were purchased,
(the Phoenix one especially), it's not a high priority to get them returned.
priority-5 is appropriate or even priority-6 ...
I'd be far more interested in getting "Sprint" back...
Thanks! ✨
Time/effort/cash-wise it's more effective to buy a new copy (£10)
than to attempt to "chase" the person who we lent the book to ...
at this point probably doesn't "remember" that it's our copy ... 😞
I don't recall "stamping" the book with the @dwyl stamp
so my guess is that the book has been "assimilated" into the person's book shelf ...

What we need is a crystal clear process for stamping and (RFID) tagging all our new books
to ~~avoid~~ eliminate the "ownership confusion" in future.
Essentially what you're saying is that if I track down whoever stole Sprint, I get to keep it?
Or if you buy a new one it'll be delivered here anyway so I can borrow it before it goes to Braga - win/win!
Why don't I do a little spike on stamping/RFID and put it into a new issue in Library when I close this one?
@rub1e your skills/knowledge/experience/abilities/awesomeness is better spent on more valuable tasks. We will define an "intern" task for stamping+tagging the books in the library. 😉
