Inventory—What’s First?

We need to do an inventory but know that there are a LOT of books which have been checked out for extended periods of time (possibly as long ago as Covid 2020).  We do stamp our books with a 2 week return date, but do not stress this. 

We are pondering whether to try to get books turned in first before doing inventory OR do inventory first and then track down the missing books. Your thoughts appreciated-especially those who have been doing church library for a while. 

Thanks!
