<h1>Patron search</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Clicking on the link to the Patron module will bring you to a search/browse screen for patrons. From here you can search for a patron by any part of their name or their card number.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Clicking the small plus sign [+] to the right of the search box will open up an advanced patron search with more filters including the ability to limit to a specific category and/or library.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can also filter your patron results using the search options on the left hand side of the page.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Depending on what you have chosen for the 'Search fields' you can search for patrons in various different ways.</p>
|

|
|
<li>Street address:
|
|
<ul>

|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Date of birth
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Birthdates should be entered using the format set forth in the dateformat preference.</li>
|

</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can also choose to either search for fields that start with the string you entered or contain the string. Choosing 'Contains' will work like a wildcard search.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can also choose how your results will be sorted by using the 'Order by' pull down menu at the end of the form.</p>
|
|
|
|
