Obviously this needs to be set just for the Penquist School System and not consortium wide.

I think what you want is the "Hard Due Date" feature, which can be set by the circ rules to apply to circs by patron type. Or pretty much anything else in the circ rules.It supports "stop at date X" and "always use date X" (but only when date X hasn't passed, then it ignores it and uses normal durations).Thomas BerezanskyMerrimack Valley Library ConsortiumQuoting Nancy Grant :> Schools often set a global due date for the end-of-the-school-year returns> .> REASONS:> 1.
