IF a patron comes in from any of our consortial partners and their barcodes do not scan and pull them, search them by name.
In this scenario, all records that are pulled in will default to CONSORTIAL STUDENT. If they are faculty, we will need to change it to Consortial Faculty.
- Check off box: FIND USER IN OTHER INSTITUTION -and- select the Institution name from the drop-down list.
- Search by ID or name. When they are found.
- Click on their ID number.
- Click on General Information tab.
- Change the USER GROUP to Consortial Faculty/Staff
- Click SAVE and check out materials.
By doing this, we will assure that the faculty member will get the longer loan period.
