[Koha] Setting up a new branch

[Fischer, Katrin]

Hi Ann,

 

maybe take a look at Administration > Library Transfer Limits and prevent holds between libraries using the ‘Default holds policy by item type’ settings at the bottom of the circulation conditions page. I am not sure if you can prevent people from overriding.

 

Hope this helps,

 

Katrin

Thank you so much for your help. Can you tell me if it is possible to stop the staff from one branch from issuing and returning items that belong to another branch. I have tried to set circulation and fines rules but it doesn't stop the issuing/returning, it only requires an override.

Best wishes

Ann Murphy

Hi Ann,

every patron can only have one home library at the moment, but you can configure Koha, so they issue/return items at other branches as well.

If you can't see the patrons from the other branch when logged in at the new branch, this might be because the system preference IndependentBranches is turned on in your installation.

Hope this helps,

Katrin
