[CASL-L] Student book lists/holds

[Elizabeth Mueller]

I use a different lms (Mackin) but I am sure sorting data in Destiny is much the same. It all depends on how your student data is initially entered in your database and which fields you selected to populate. You can generate reports and sort data any way you want although in Destiny it may be that you have to export the your “holds” report to a spreadsheet first,  and then sort it the way you want—by grade, classroom, etc.
