The library will need to prepare for a new school year.
· Calendar
o Set closed dates during the school year
o Set ceiling date (date in June that ALL items need to be back in the library) for each patron group. Please remember that once that ceiling date passes, circulation reverts to regular parameters.
· Patrons
o Merge any duplicated patrons
o Set up email ‘supervisor’ for homerooms by going to Back Office>Site Configuration>Site Administration
o Run and distribute overdues (Paper or email)
o Learn how to handle book returns and lost book payments from ‘new- to- you’ students and faculty. Moving Up (Hint: Books and payments are sent to the previous library)
If your library has added subscription databases or received updated access information, One Search information needs to changed. Catalog>Search Setup>Enriched Content Searches. Click "One Search Database Information" and then Edit. You can review the databases that are configured in One Search. You can remove out-of-ate databases or add new subscriptions.
