Would anyone be willing to provide examples of how you are documenting object rotations in the exhibit module?
For example, do you use venues to include/exclude objects from the full exhibit object list?

What if rotations are staggered and dont fit into a neat time period that can be called a venue? What other fields do you perhaps use to track exhibit dates for individual objects?

Do you use Exhibit Object Status (e.g. On View or Off View statuses?)  Since there is no Exhibit Object Status Date, how do you document the dates for on/off view?

Any ideas about documenting page rotations? ie the same document or bound volume is on exhibit, but pages have to be rotated out or turned to limit light exposure for a given page.

Any input or ideas you can provide about what works or what you have tried and decided it does not work, would be most appreciated.
