Circ Services update (5/16/24)

  • Innovative will remove the “Mark Items Damaged” feature (ie the “Mark Damaged Items” button) next Friday, 6/7
  • Feel free to review this spreadsheet with SCHOOL/EMP data broken out by residence – MCFLS will bring this topic to a future LDAC meeting as discussed
  • Circ policy C-17 has been added for the item renewal override
  • Some additional info re: automatic card renewal failures – per Patron Point “Auto-renew is a very specific name-to-address match.  So, if the address in Patron Point does not match the address at the Identity checker, then they will not auto-renew.  This could be because they rent rather than own, or it could be because the patron’s last name is not the same as the one that is listed as the homeowner. ” We were also told that a patron’s online footprint contributes to a success/failure in auto-renewal; those with a smaller online presence may be more likely to be rejected.
