I notice that the system seems rather slow even when renewing a book or when pulling up the initial list. I wonder if the database queries are not optimal or something. if it goes too long, your browser can time out the request and claim that the URL cannot be resolved. I don't remember if you can change the number of entries per page but if you can, might try lowering the number. Although, I usually prefer a larger number so I don't have to go and switch pages so much. I usually set my google search page limit to 100 hits instead of the usual 10 hit default. I also think there ot to be a filter added where we could exclude entries with the word "hold" for example. That would make the list more managable for sure.
