Camera Booking Forms / System

WithoutMotive · 15-08-2008, 10:36 AM

My brain has gone completely numb so I wouldn't mind a few pointers.

We have 7 digital still cameras and 2 digital video cameras which staff are allowed to use for whatever purpose. I'm trying to devise some sort of booking form for them to sign when they've taken one out or a booking system online they can use but I can't seem to get my brain in gear as to what should be on it.

I want some way of keeping track of who has booked what for when and knowing who has what camera out already, etc.

I've tried to adapt the Resources tab on the Booking System from Devizes School but it's not really working.

Anyone do something similar who could give me a few tips?
Thanks.

MRBS is a free, GPL, web application using PHP and MySQL/pgsql for booking meeting rooms. It's similar in concept to Netscape Calendar, but much cheaper!

Easily adapted to cameras, resources etc. MRBS: Index

date / time of booking, period of how long item is being booked out for or being used, item details ie serial number, make , model and get some sticky labels or security tags and security tag each of them so that the security tag is linked to the serial number, make, model etc so when they book out security tag 1111 - this will be linked to camera model this, camera make this with serial number xyz and also who has booked it out ie teacher first and last name and where they are going to be using the camera that way if its not returned then you have a rough idea of where it should be.

We use the Devizes booking system here and the staff find it easy to use and the technicians have a TFT screen in their office always showing the resource booking page so we can see instantly who has booked what - we do however insisit that they can't book a camera on the day they need it as they need to provide 24 hours notice.

There is this: R & R

From ITS, it's very new, apparently they only have about 6 people using it at the moment... not sure if this is a good thing or not. They have been doing MyPC computer booking system for a while, and appear to have branched out.

They will happily do a demo online or on-site for you.
