Resource sharing is a concept which has developed to contain many cooperative activities among libraries and other stakeholders. Interlibrary loan continues to be the basis of resource sharing. Conversely, union catalogue development, cooperative cataloguing, cooperative reference, cooperative gathering development and joint storage of material are all components of A Canadian Information Resource Sharing Strategy. The development of the national resource sharing infrastructure explained in the strategy depends on input from all stakeholders. The National Library consequently is making a number of consultation documents available for comment.

There are three models for resource sharing you can use:
1. Allowed: it''s up to the client to decide whether other customers can share the resource with them or if they wish to use the resource completely. An illustration where this can be used is a shuttle bus rental which normally would also take other clients but sometimes a customer may wish to use the whole shuttle van exclusively. In pricing manager you can identify a rule which would update the price in such case.
2. Sharing is disabled (use in most cases) -- this will let only one client reserve given resource at one time.
3. Constantly possible -- this forces all clients to share the resource with the others. This mode should be used whenever you sell tickets or seats or any other type of resource which is used on per-person basic (including bikes, dormitory bed, personal gear etc.). If you choose this option, two things will happen: planyo will add a new reservation form item Number of persons where the client can set the number of tickets/seats they wish to reserve. Another modification is that by selecting constantly possible the monthly price in case of Planyo PRO will be lower (for shared resources planyo counts the number of resources as a half of the overall seats/tickets available).
