--- Comment #27 from Ian Walls <[email protected]> ---
This code works off of item type because item types are the "What" parameter in
circulation rules ("where" being branch, and "who" being patron category"). 
Collection codes to not factor into circulation rules, and I don't believe they
should.  If you need materials to have a different set of behaviours, assign
them different item types.  If that set of types isn't what you'd want your
users to search on, that's okay, Collection Code can be used for searching
instead.

Rotating Collections wouldn't be well covered by this code; as you say, we need
to track not only who owns a material and where it currently is, but where it
should be.  If you abstract this a little further, we could have "temporary"
item information of any kind.  This would support Course Reserves, in that
materials could have their item types and shelving locations changed for the
term, then reverted back.
