Hello everyone. The public library system that I work for has just recently joined the Koha family. I am loving the versatility of the system. 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. 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. 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. Has anyone done something like this?
