Press Release: LibraryWorld [January 24, 2007]

Checkout by Patron Name

By popular demand, items can now be checked out to a patron by using the patron's name as well as the patron's number. When in checkout mode, enter the patron's number or enter the patron's last name. If there are multiple patrons with the last name, a list will appear to choose the correct full name.

Remember, you can checkout to the 'next' patron simply by entering their number or name without clicking on the checkout link again.

Next - again by popular demand - we are working on a reserve function that will allow one or more patrons to reserve a title that has already been checked out. You should see this new feature sometime in February.


Summary: In the LibraryWorld circulation module, items can now be checked out to a patron by using the patron's name as well as the patron's number. When in checkout mode, enter the patron's number or enter the patron's last name. If there are multiple patrons with the last name, a list will appear to choose the correct full name.
