Identifying Item types
Unless your library is just starting up, you will already have your list of Item types.
Just like with patron categories you might consider modifying the item type list to
take advantage of some of Koha's capabilities.

characteristics. We need to assess if types of material are different in one or more
of following ways:
Renewal policies
Not for loan policies
Loan period
Maximum checkouts
Fine amount
Rental charge
