[Agnes Rivers-Moore]

Ah - and I looked all over bugzilla using borrower and patron - but not "membership"!
Thank you!

Agnes, I think this would be a great idea! Would you post a bug number


when


you get it filed? We are running into this in our consortia with people


who


only use the computers and authenticate against the database for computer
access, as well as digital content.

Dear Koha users and developers

We have a number of members (patrons) who only borrow e-books.
This means staff do not see them and they do not get reminded that their
membership will expire - until they call to complain that their


downloads


stop working.

I would like Koha to generate a notice to let them know that they will
need to renew soon - similar to the book is due soon notice but based on
expiry of the borrower account.

That would allow us to tell them whet they need to do to renew their
account before their service is affected, and also tell them about new
services/reasons to renew.

Has anyone found a way to do that - or is anyone thinking of developing


a


new notice for this?
If not, I will add a new item to Bugzilla - watch there if you want to
follow developments.

Many thanks,
Agnes
