<p class=MsoNormal>Hello everyone.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The public library system that I work for has just recently
joined the Koha family. I am loving the versatility of the system.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We are using the Patron Messaging Preferences for the
standard overdue and circulation notices. We wonder if there is room for an
enhancement that would allow customers to select and receive periodic lists of
newly accessioned items they are interested in? In our case I was
thinking of basing lists on Koha Item types for the adults, and possibly
more encompassing lists for the junior and teen books. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>How I envision it working is patrons would be able to
see what lists were available by logging into the online catalogue and select
individual lists that meet their borrowing interests. They would be able
to select how often they would like to receive the lists; with weekly,
fortnightly or monthly options. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I would think the emailed list would include the author and
title of the item and a small cover image. By being able to push this
information out to customers via email we may increase our patronage. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Has anyone done something like this? <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Regards<o:p></o:p></p>
