Most schools will use this module on a daily basis.

The thing you should know about Circulation is that it is FULL of shortcuts.  If you find it annoying to reach for the mouse all the time then you’ll want to start paying a little more attention to the pop-up messages that let you know the shortcut every time you point to something!
