Notes:

If you do not specify a loan period for a resource type – or you create a new resource type – that resource type inherits its loan period from the resource above it in the hierarchy.
Consumables do not need to be checked in or out. At the end of the loan period, a nightly job runs and deletes them.
Destiny does not take into account the Open or Closed days defined on your Calendar. You might need to adjust a due date that falls on a day your school or office is closed.
