Staff activity log
We occasionally have issues with staff abusing their ability to waive fines or deleting items inappropriately or accessing patron accounts outside of acceptable library operations. We would like to have a way to view these actions within a log file associated with each Sierra login (or filterable by login) so that these activities could be periodically audited by managerial staff and retroactively be reviewed when inappropriate system activities are believed to have taken place.

This, along with a variety of other audit trail functions, would be a considerable benefit.

Audit trails protect both the user and the library. The downside is that they can devour disk space. You mentioned being able to retroactively review these. Is there a particular log retention period that would make sense to you?
